Feedback from previous participants: "It's just cool", "who doesn't like a good plot?", "data science baby" and "the right plot can change a lot".

We are an open community creating “Data Stories”: A mix of open data, code, narrative 💬, visuals 📊📈 and knowledge 🧠 to help understand the world around us. Take a look [here](https://alan-turing-institute.github.io/TuringDataStories-fastpages/).
