The hackspace is run by volunteers. A board of seven give some of their spare time to ensure the space continues to run. Each board member takes responsibility for a particular area listed in the table below. Additionally, each role has a deputy who also exercises some oversight in that area. Either of these can be your first port of call if you want to discuss a particular issue.

Just because board members handle a particular area, please don't assume that means you can't do things. Plenty of members care and want to help out with stuff, and the hackspace is fundamentally quite a permissive space. The reason these roles exist is just to provide a level of awareness and coordination between different aspects of the space.

Sometimes, an opportunity arises for a board member to get something the space needs. Usually, board members text or phone other board members to get a quorate vote in favour of expenditure, but in some cases there isn't time. So:

Draft hackspace board expenses policy:*Limit. £50? £30?*Only pertains to items for the hackspace.*Special cases only.*Board members should not expect to be repaid quickly. Making impulse buys puts you last in line to be repaid, and if cashflow is too tight, you have to wait as long as it takes.*Being able to buy things for £[LIMIT] Not a default position. When time and circumstance allow, which they almost always do, you should email or call other board members to get approval.*James: Board members can't club together and spend extra money by combining their limits.*Can't do it more than once in a month.Good example: A wood lathe was going for £40 at auction. It's a good tool at a low price, and one that many members had expressed an interest in having.Bad examples: "I happened to be in Homebase, and I picked up a dozen extension leads and some two-by-fours because I thought the space would need them one day"."A man offered me some speakers from a van in the street".etc. Expenditure should be planned and voted on wherever possible. Even if there is a limited opportunity, you should try to contact the rest of the board. Sometimes, other board members are aware of implications you may not be.
