Nottingham Hackspace Needs Your Help
As you may or may not be aware, Nottingham Hackspace’s landlords have been evicted from our current location, meaning we lose our space at the end of April.
This gives us an opportunity to make Nottingham Hackspace even better, but for that we need your help!
We have found an excellent space for Hackspace2.0, much bigger than our current hackspace, but we need a fairly large initial deposit – £2000. This is where you come in…
Your can help us by:
- Sending a donation – the simplest way
- Becoming a friend of Nottingham Hackspace – have your name immortalised for all time
- Sponsor part of our new space – name a room in Hackspace2.0
We need to raise this money by the end of April so if you can, please stick your hand down the back of your sofa and donate now!
Donation
Bank and PayPal details are at the bottom of this post, simply send us some money and mark it as a donation!
Become a Friend of Nottingham Hackspace
If you become a friend of Nottingham Hackspace, we will list your name on this site, and on a massive display in Hackspace2.0. This “Friend’s Wall” will form the backdrop of many of our future videos and photos.
Becoming a friend is easy and cheap, with a number of options – basically, the more money you donate, the bigger and more prominent your name on the wall and the website. You can donate as much as you like, and we will ensure that everyone’s “per £” is the same.
Sponsor Hackspace2.0
We have three rooms to name in the space, and you could name them. For £1000 you can name the really big room, for £750 for can name second largest room and for £500 you can name largest office space or the kitchen. Please contact us at info@nottinghack.org.uk to arrange this.

I’ve made an rough, unedited video of the space we are trying to get!

This space is as big as our ambition. The video starts in the Big Workshop, the camera then goes through the door (past @Nachimir) into the Big Studio… I then pop my head into the doors of the ablution room, kitchen, Small Studio and the reception storage and office. Back through the Big Studio and then to the little middle office.
Donate button for paypal not working – certificate problem. Please re-blog when fixed. Can’t donate otherwise!
I’ve fixed that now John, sorry about that!
And thank you for supporting us!
Will send paypal donation later today. Good luck!

Can I suggest you set up a pledgebank.
Something along the lines of “I will donate £10 to the Nottingham Hackerspace but only if 100 other people will do the same.”

Guys, please post the BIC/IBAN of your bank account, so I can do a SEPA transfer … not everyone does things the way they are being done on the island ;P
Also, please offer flattr (or at least moneybookers) in addition to paypal, lotsa fellow nerds despise PP…
Good luck collecting the necessary funds, I’m rooting for you. Hopefully we can come visit you soon in your new space – don’t forget to throw an internationally announced house warming party 😉
