Clubs at Makespace
Want to learn something new but not quite sure where to start? Take a look what our members have to offer!
Leather Together
Every Tuesday between 4 and 6pm, members meet in the Craftroom to do leatherworking together!
Even as a complete beginner, our amazing members will happily show you the basics and give advice on how to proceed.
We have a stock of donated leather available to beginners, and as soon as you’re feeling more confident and ready to take on a bigger project, we have leather rolls you can buy from as well as buckles, D-rings, rivets and everything else you might need.
Check the meetup and sign up to our next event. You can even bring a guest!
Woodworking evenings
Interested in trying woodworking? For a beginner, most of the tools that you will need are orange equipment!
Join the Woodworking evenings on Wednesdays!
A couple of people will be working on their own projects and will potentially be able to help you with yours.
Careful: spaces are limited because the workbenches can accommodate a maximum of 4 people. But if you just want to chat and don’t plan on using them, feel free to come along! Just hang around and bounce some ideas about a project you have in mind.

CAD Club Night
Tuesday nights in the Makespace Classroom are Raspberry Pi, Arduino/Micro-controllers and CAD Club meet-ups.
Come and join fellow coding and computer aided design enthusiasts for an informal evening of tinkering with tech.
Help is on hand to assist you with any problems.
Bring along a project you’re working on, or join in with whatever else is going on. We typically have a regular group of Raspberry Pi and Pico experts to help you if you need it. SOLIDWORKS and FreeCAD help is also on hand.
This is a Makespace community outreach event, so non-members are welcome. Just sign up on the meet-up and ring the ‘Pi Club’ door bell which will be hanging on the Makespace outside door on the night.
Coder Dojo
CoderDojo happens on the second Saturday of every month in the Makespace classroom, between 10am and 1pm.
This is a FREE coding club for young people, run by volunteers.
Learn coding in šŗ Scratch, š Python and more! No experience is required – just bring your kids along so they can have some fun!
