+I've been a member of London Hacksapce for nearly 4 years now, and before that I was always watching how the community grew, and what its turned into now is something far beyond what anyone could have imagined. I'm standing as a trustee because I believe that I can improve the already fantastic Hackspace community. I have seen the great work that has been put in by the current trustees and want to contribute what I can to further and improve that.
+Having the amazing tools we do is a privilege that we can always expand on, with the new lasercutter and the 3D printer are always going to bring people in, but what keeps them around is the atmosphere in the place, and helpfulness of those around. As we've grown, we find that a lot of us who knew everyone in a small community, now find lots of new faces, and even old faces who aren't as familiar to us. I think expanding upon the new member experience, and trying to plan more social events as well as helping others too plan events in the space are essential to helping integrte the community more.
+As a final note, I think also that helping other Hackspaces where we can would also be great for us to do, to expand national Hackspace groups. I have worked hard on events like EMF to help with this, but I think London Hackspace could do a lot more to further this goal.
