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.

The Hackspace is run by volunteers. A board of seven trustees give some of their spare time to ensure the space continues to run.

Just because a trustee seems to have an interest in a particular area, please don't assume that means you can't do things. Trustees are first and foremost members, and any work or space-wide projects that they take part in they do so as members.

You can always contact the entirety of the current board by emailing trustees@nottinghack.org.uk.

The trustees are making an effort to ensure that the membership as a whole has a better understanding of what we do on a daily, weekly and monthly basis. A round up of this information will be available in the newsletter, and updated as regularly as possible (daily usually, at a minimum weekly) on the wiki, here!

To contact an individual trustee, use their email from the table below.

As a founding member of NottingHack, I've always been involved in helping the space grow. As a trustee, I continue to help the space by keeping a close eye on the financial aspect, tracking what we have on hand, the current project commitments, as well as long-term budget predictions. These days I spend most of my time at the space working on infrastructure projects such as working on Gatekeeper, the system that operates the front door, to restoring the Bridgeport mill, to improving the metal-working area.
