How to apply
Makerspace is a volunteer run organisation and so the current capacity of the volunteers to process and manage members is limited. While we grow this capacity we are inviting new members in small batches. This is to ensure the safety of members, the space, and the equipment.
To begin the process of applying please fill in our application form.
The membership team will then be in contact to invite you to an open induction session where we will give you a tour of Makerspace and an overall building induction. Following this, your guide will answer any questions that you may have and invite you to complete the final steps to becoming a full member.
Please bear with us though as we ramp this process up. With the level of interest that we are receiving it may be some time before the team are able to invite you to a session.
