Makerspace for young people 15-25 / donation requests
Hi everyone,
I volunteer at a makerspace at the city YMCA called the 4C centre. We have 3D printers, CNC machines, a laser cutter, an audio/visual creation suite, electronics, and all the tech you could imagine!
We are still new and getting a feel for our direction- we welcome new members (just a $20 one off fee!) and run classes on all the tech with the help of our volunteers.
We are looking for donations of materials to use in our projects. I’m wondering whether anyone on neighbourly has ideas of organisations we could ask - even off-cuts or spare bits would be appreciated. We have a whole workshop set up and so many inspired youth but art and creation has to start somewhere!

Poll: Should employees be able to work from home?
At the post-Cabinet press conference, the National Party asserted they want public sector staff to return to the office. This has opened a conversation about other sectors in New Zealand who have adopted working from home (WFH).
