R-Ladies London
The UK’s very first R Programming community for self-identified women & minority genders! A local chapter of R-Ladies Global, R-Ladies London exists to promote gender diversity in the R community, both in the UK and worldwide. We are pro-actively inclusive of queer, trans, and all minority identities, with extra sensitivity to intersectional identities (which many lead R-Ladies are) – our priority is to provide a safe community space for anyone identifying as a minority gender who is interested in and/or working with R. As a founding principle, there is no cost or charge to participate in any of our 30+ R-Ladies communities around the world.
R-Ladies London welcomes members of all R proficiency levels, whether you’re a fresh or aspiring R user, or an experienced R programmer interested in mentoring, networking & pro upskilling. Our non-profit, civil society community is designed to develop our members’ R abilities & skill through social, collaborative learning & sharing. Supporting minority identity access to STEM abilities & careers, the Free Software Movement, and contributing to the global R community!

PS Community Policies & Code of Conduct: the leadership, mentoring & instructing roles within this Community are held exclusively by minority genders (majority gender speakers may be permitted/invited as one-off guests in exceptional circumstances at the leadership team’s discretion). Due to unexpected request, we have opened learning participation to all genders, dependent on initial and on-going vetting by the leadership team. However, the stated priority of the R-Ladies communities is the development & support specifically of those identifying as a minority gender, and we therefore reserve the right to guard this interest through whatever measures the leadership team deem adequate. Anyone involved with R-Ladies London is expected to fully respect each other, the mandate of this community, and the goodwill on which R-Ladies is founded, or face expulsion/a penalty of any form, at the discretion of the leadership team.
