Today we gave our tuck shop a little spruce up. We've added a worktop, lifted the coffee making area and moved some of the fridges around the different rooms to better fit how we're using the space.

Cyber Mondays

6:30-9pm every Monday

Chat all things security, capture the flag, and meet others interested in cyber security.

Meeting in the Pi Room

Our new mural is complete!

We hope this will help people find their way to the right bits of the space, especially the main entrance!

If you've visited Leigh Hackspace in the last 6 weeks you might have seen some of this year's Light Up Leigh parade being made.

The big piece this year was the snow leopard.

Want to see what you could make with us?

Open day at the mill! 10-4pm today!

Fancy seeing what you can do at a #Hackspace? Why not come along to our next Open Day, tomorrow 10-4pm.

On site parking, makers market, lots of other businesses in the mill have events on too!

On the second day of #OggCamp2024 @kianryan and @CatRyan returned for further adventures.

@CatRyan caught a great talk about #inkstitch and #turtlestitch by Prof Margaret Low.

@kianryan gave a lightening talk on the Frankenender.

We've had a wonderful weekend at OggCamp24. Met lots of interesting people, watched and participated in many talks and demos. We're really looking forward to next year!

Today we had an adventure out of the Hackspace. @CatRyan, @kianryan, and @cjdell went to #OggCamp2024.

We heard tales about home automation, how to inspire the next generation of creatives, new ways to program embroidery machines, and many, many more.

We saw all friends, and made new ones too.

And some of us will be back for day two!
