The document discusses a coding camp program called "Codes for Kids" that will introduce 60 young people in Brighton and Hove to coding over the summer of 2013. The camps will be run using donated Raspberry Pi computers and other recycled hardware. The goal is to create "coding champions" who can teach others and sustain coding workshops in the community. Peer-to-peer learning and continued sponsorship from groups like Google and donations from local organizations will help make the program sustainable.
