Nottingham Hackspace is currently in Level 1: The space is closed except for essential use (member-decided with trustee agreement). You cannot access the space without approval.
|
Current Status
We are currently in Level 1. This means you can request access via. the Nottinghack HMS (Hackspace Management System). A video of how to apply via. HMS is available.
All requests are approved by a trustee. A reason must be provided, which details what you are planning to do or why you need to go and it is "essential". Once approved an email with confirmation will be sent to your email address.
These bookable slots are up to 3 hours in length; you make a single booking at a time for yourself only and no guests are allowed. You should exit the space before your time is up by the workshop door (if upstairs).
New requests for access are reviewed between 9AM and 5PM - you should request at least a day in advance and there is no guarantee of a request being approved. Even if approved the trustees will always have oversight of bookings and may suggest new times or revoke access if required for some reason. You will be clearly informed if this is ever the case.
Rules
There are a number of rules that must be adhered to with the current, and likely future levels of opening:
- Bring what you need and take home everything you bring; clean up after yourself.
- Do not leave the space late for any reason.
- Leave only by the workshop door if upstairs, not the spiral staircase door, and tag yourself out properly.
- Do not attempt to use tools the Trustees have deemed dangerous during sole occupancy, eg: Table Saw. These will be marked and turned off.
Once multiple occupancy is introduced there will be an additional rule on the use of masks in the presence of others and social distancing requirements.
These are for your own safety and the safety of others. The trustees will be enforcing these rules and any rule breaking will be taken seriously. You can email the trustees or contact them on slack about any potential issues.
