Hertford MakerSpace
I like to make things but don't have the space to be creative. I've come across these groups that get together to provide working space to be creative.

I want one for Hertford. Does anyone else want to get involved, offer suggestions or give some constructive critism. I've set up a google discussion group but replies to this thread are welcome.

Thanks Arty
I made contact with Courtyard Arts.
I looking for empty industrial units that will let at no rent. Landlords have still have to pay rates and upkeep on empty premises and I've heard that some will let to a charity organisation just keep the unit in use and rates paid.
I put this to a landlord I stumbled across and he was cagily receptive. We've swapped details and I'm persuing with his agent.

I've some encouraging progress in finding premises for a community working space for people to use for creative crafts.
I'll be using it for woodworking, furniture renovation etc, some one else would use it for painting and soft furnishings.
Is anyone here interested in using a local work space to pursue a hobby or craft?
