This approach helps us reach more people\, run more classes and make the best use of our limited resources — while keeping our classes inclusive and welcoming. \nImportantly\, we’ll continue to run free community classes alongside this model. This is a trial\, so if you have any questions or suggestions\, please contact us at classes@madeinhackney.org. \nPLEASE NOTE: This class is for adults only. \nSuggested contributions per place \n\n£20 – Covers the cost\n£30 – Generous Giver\n£40 – Solidarity Supporter\n\nIf you cannot afford the minimum donation but would still like to attend\, please email classes@madeinhackney.org.
