Every Hackspace Citizen plays a role in running the hackspace this includes helping keep it clean, helping to improve the space and helping to maintain it.
So how can you help?
However, we expect Hackspace Citizens to go that bit further and instead of just cleaning up after yourself how about:
Getting involved in Hack the Space Days - these are regular events where we work together to improve different aspects of the space, tidy and sort out areas etc. They are organised on an ad-hoc basis and if you have any improvements for the space feel free to use the forum to arrange an HTSD
Housekeeping - Things need to be done on a regular basis to keep the space tidy this includes hoovering the floors, wiping down the work surfaces, taking the rubbish out and generally tidying up. If you have a spare 10 minutes in the space help it out by completing one of the housekeeping tasks
Equipment Maintenance/Induction - Join one of the teams that look after specific areas or equipment and get involved in helping to maintain equipment, train users in its use etc
Run an event/club/course - Do you have skills you would like to share with others? Why not run a club or course or an event that bring members (and potentially non-members) together to do that. The Hackspace Outreach Committee and the Hackspace Manchester Board would eagerly support this.
