The Co-Founders

2017 The beginning of everything

The Makers Guild CIC, in Portsmouth, UK, started with 3 individuals with a shared goal of creating a makerspace in the area because they got fed with the lack of facilities in the area. With the clever interior design industry knowledge from Sam, we accidentally secured a space within the historic Portsmouth Guildhall.
