Taking the ingenuity, skill and experience of all you seasoned hackers and using it to teach the next few generations. As part of this infrequent event we invite groups of young children and teenagers to the Hackspace and show them how to make things. Electronics, crafts, lasers, sound, ... 

We're currently busy organising the first few test runs at the [[London Hackspace]], in the meantime this is merely a placeholder page. Will write more as we learn more.
