Cortonwood Comeback Community Centre

Barnsley, UK

Cortonwood Comeback Community Centre was established in 1986 by members of the local community who recognised the need to tackle the problems of unemployment, exclusion and disadvantage in Brampton Bierlow and surrounding areas in the aftermath of the miner’s strike. Our Centre has always been run and managed by volunteers. Throughout our history, it has never had a paid manager and many of our groups are run by volunteers who give their time and expertise freely to the Community Centre. The Centre aims to help overcome the inequalities and lack of access to services that have a direct impact on the lives of the elderly, young people, and those on low incomes. We aim to advance education and provide facilities for recreation and leisure time, with the objective of improving people’s quality of life Providing a community service that’s needs-led, we adapt services to the needs of the community at any given time.

Doncaster Hack and Makerspace

Doncaster, UK

Doncaster Hack and Makerspace is a community-driven hub for innovation, creativity, and learning. Currently working out of Art-Bomb Studio on Hall Gate in Doncaster, we provide access to tools, technology, and resources for individuals of all ages and backgrounds to explore STEM fields, arts, and crafts. We meet on Wednesdays and Fridays throughout the month, with dates available on our Facebook page. We accept members aged 14 and upwards, though anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian. We are actively looking for our own premises, and access to tools and materials will be key to making this a reality. Donations from B&Q would enable us to equip our space with the necessary resources to support various projects, allowing members to engage in hands-on learning, prototyping, and creative expression. These additions will help us foster collaboration, skill development, and sustainable practices, empowering members to bring their ideas to life and contribute to a vibrant, inclusive community.
