Meet our community

Makespace is a space managed by and for the members. Here, no cleaning service, no employees to maintain the machines: everything you see has been achieved thanks to our members volunteering their time.
While volunteering at Makespace is not an obligation, we do encourage you to get involved.
As we like to say:
“Makespace is what you make it.”
How can I get involved?
There are multiple ways you can get involved in the Space’s life. Most of them involve less than a couple of hours a month, but it’s up to you to modulate your time however you want.
Become a Trainer
Are you feeling proficient on a certain piece of equipment?
Become a Trainer!
Trainers are responsible for organising practical trainings and maintaining the equipment.
Makespace trainers are the backbone of our community: without them, new members wouldn’t be able to get trained on the equipment.
Contact the corresponding Owner teams and express your interest.
Make the Space
Roll up your sleeves and meet up with us on the last Saturday of each month, between 10am and 1pm!
No long winded discussion, no computers, just getting things done that need doing.
And the best part?
Biscuits and tea at 11:30!
See the Space
Our “See the Space” tours are the first point of contact for all prospective Makespace members.
If you have time on Mondays evening, come and run a brief tour of the Space to show people what equipment, facilities and opportunities Makespace can offer its members!
Contact management@makespace.org to help!
Getting involved, it’s also…

Emptying the dishwasher
Cleaning up after yourself
Being a Buddy for someone in the workshop
Helping other members on their project
