Space News
- We’ve fixed a couple of holes that appeared in the decking on the terrace and will be giving it a good clean / spruce up ready for BBQ weather 🌞
- There are now additional hot desks in Headspace that stretch all the way to the front of the building / space giving us even more capacity to grow and accommodate everyone on our busier days 🖥
- A gentle reminder please that if you wish to pause or cancel your membership, we require 30 days notice. As a small, independent business it supports us to manage our membership numbers and keep growing our community 🌱
- Don’t forget that we have our next Games Night coming up on Monday May 15th @ 5pm – last time, Gonçalo and Emma took on a bunch of renegades and outlaws in the ultimate Western showdown. There was a lot of bluffing, backstabbing, laughter and fun. Bring your favourite games and snacks 🍿
- In the event anyone is in need of first aid whilst working in our space, we have a First Aid Kit located in the safe in the main room and there is a label on the front of the safe that says “First Aid Kit Inside”. Please let Emma know if there are any accidents and if you need any support ⛑

External Events 🎉
Emily’s Leaving Drinks 🍹
The wonderful Emily will be leaving us next week to start her exciting new job in ecology. Not only has Emily been such a joy to have in our community she’s also stepped in to cover as Community Manager when Emma has been away.
We are immensely sad she’ll no longer be working from our space but she promises to come back and visit us, and stay in touch
If you’d like to join us in celebrating her new job and saying goodbye she’s having drinks on Friday 12th May from 5pm at The Gallimaufry.
