The Space Project, hosted by The Really Open University, had it's
first public meeting on October 4th in the Space itself at 37-38
Mabgate Green. We are above our friends the Pedallers Arms bike co op
until end of March 2012. We are very sorry the space isn't wheelchair
accesible.
We have a website here at www.spaceproject.org.uk that will soon be a
far more interactive affair. Also do LIKE our FB page here -
