London Hackspace (abbreviated LHS) is a non–profit hackerspace in London, UK, established in 2009.[1] Originally located in Islington, it moved to Hoxton in July 2010,[2][3] and later to Park Royal[4]. In 2012, it was the largest hackerspace in the United Kingdom by membership, with over 1000 paying members.[5][6]

Founding

The group held its first meeting at Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese on 10 February 2009.[7]

Organisational status

London Hackspace became the world's first virtualised non–profit corporation on 27 July 2011, when the members at the AGM voted to use the OneClickOrgs platform to carry out all the procedures of the board of directors.[8]

London hackspace has a wide variety of facilities split across multiple sections, including equipment for electronics, 3D printing,[9] craft, laser cutting, woodwork, metalwork, textile arts, amateur radio, robotics, and many other things.
