To create a new meetup based on the official meetup contained on https://meetup.com/leicesterjs, first create a dated markdown file in /src/meetups The format of the date should be in ISO_8601 which looks like this yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss. Note: you will need to account for whether or not the meetup is taking place during BST and alter the date format to be in UTC without the timezone offset e.g. 2019-08-15 19:00:00+01:00 would become 2019-08-15 18:00:00.
