Educational group visiting Makespace - FYI and Volunteering opportunity

Makespace (Cambridge, UK) **Volunteering opportunity** \- please \.com if you could help with this \(anything from helping with an actual activity\, to just being present in the room at the same time\) I will be at Makespace with a group of 10-15 (aspiring engineering) students for a visit. The plan includes a brief tour of the space, some equipment demonstrations, and time for the students to learn some skills: 1. learning to solder - mini PCBs with LEDS and resistors 2. engraving keyrings using laser cutter (students do minimal design on computer - a trained makespace member operates the laser cutter) Please note that this will not restrict or interfere with anyone else’s use of the space—we simply wanted to give you a heads-up that a group of young people will be present during that time. Thanks, Rachel

CB4 Life Group

Sarah and Tom lead the North Cambridge life group (nicknamed 'the fire pit group' due to their obsession with hosting any form of gathering they can get away with round the fire in their garden!) Although they meet in and focus on serving those in the CB4 locality, they are keen to build community with people from all over Cambridge and welcome anyone to join them on a Wednesday evening each week.

More about Little Shelford

Cambridgeshire, England

Little Shelford sits quietly in Cambridgeshire with a village green that feels like it was designed for a picnic rather than a party. The church hall often hosts community gatherings while the local school puts on plays that make even the grumpiest parent laugh out loud. It is a place where neighbours know your name and the air smells of fresh grass after rain. Events here tend to be low key but high on good times, with markets appearing when the weather permits. There are always family-friendly activities popping up near the village centre so you do not have to travel far for fun. We keep track of what is on so you can plan your Saturday without checking a dozen websites.
