Hi
One of my actions from the community meeting was to arrange an epic trip to the
North West Computer Museum and
Leigh Hackspace, both based in
Leigh Spinners Mill (this is a really interesting destination in itself, they still make astroturf there, but it also hosts a whole range of businesses, including artists' studios and galleries, furniture makers, record shop, cinema, etc.).
I've been in touch with Paul from Leigh Hackspace and the best time to visit them would be from 12:00 - 17:00 on a Saturday. Saturday opening for the Computer Museum is from 10:00 - 16:00 and Heritage public visitor tours of the mill are from 10:00 - 14:00 (definitely worth it to see the original steam engines which have been renovated).
I've set up a
Doodle Poll here. Can everyone who's interested fill in the dates they'll be available. We can work out the details later - it will be good if we get some people with cars as it isn't a great place to get to be public transport.
Thanks
Jackie
