The Hackspace policy for donations is that equipment must be offered before it is left in the building. This is a pragmatic approach to ensure that we are not used as a waste disposal for broken or obsolete equipment.
Please speak to a director or room lead to offer a donation.
These are items which we would like to acquire or upgrade.
