Membership and induction

Membership applications have been coming in since the grand opening, and we’ve inducted several people already, which means people are using their key fobs to access the makerspace whenever they want! We love it.

If you’d like to join, please fill in the membership application form here. And if you’ve already done that, you might have an email inviting you for an induction – get in touch at hello AT machspace DOT org and we’ll find a date and time that works for you. We have availability in the afternoons and evenings most days of the week at the moment, with mornings (hopefully) coming soon.

Open days

We’ve figured out our open day sessions! You can find them on our calendar page here. In summary, they’re Wednesday evenings and Saturday lunchtimes, with one every two weeks or so. The next one is Saturday 11th November, 12-2pm, which coincides with a repair cafe taking place at the Community Hub over the road.

Volunteering

Would you like to help make a makerspace? If so, we would love for you to join in! Machspace is a non-profit run by three volunteers with limited energy and time, so every little helps. Email us at hello AT machspace DOT org and tell us what you’re into!

In particular we’re looking for a woodworking specialist – because woodworking is something a lot of prospective members have expressed an interest in, and none of the directors have much expertise. If you’re proficient with woodworking, carpentry, power tools, etc. and you’re interested in helping out, please take a look at this volunteering “job description”.
