As many of you will remember from your inductions, our epic grant from the Social Value Forum Development Fund concludes in March 2025. We currently have £400 coming in per month as donations, and our projections suggest that by March we might have around £600 of the necessary £1,000 per month we’ll need to stay afloat. This means that in April 2025, if we don’t manage to secure further funding, we will probably have to introduce a compulsory membership fee.

This could affect Machspace in quite unpredictable ways, so we’re running this consultation for one month to try and build a picture of what might happen in April. Any information you can give us is anonymous, will remain private, and is really valuable for helping us to prepare and adapt; our goal is to keep membership accessible to as many people as possible.

The consultation is open until 11:59pm on 17th November 2024.

It’s open to anyone who lives in/near Machynlleth, and all Machspace members and enjoyers. If you know any local makers or craftspeople please do share a survey link with them, because it’s also really helpful to hear from people outside of our bubble of regulars.

Thank you, everyone!
