Back in October 2014 I game a talk at Barcamp Manchester about how I had accidentally made a hack space, it was a little tongue in cheek at it wasn’t so much a physical space as a group of people who wanted a space to happen.
This year there will be a follow up.
It turns out if enough people want something you can make it happen, with a little help from Oldham Council we have just opened the doors at Hack Oldham, at the moment its a complete mess but following next weeks HackTheSpace event we should start to get a little more organised.
You can follow the progress of Hack Oldham at its website HackOldham.com
