What's your interest in this area?
I hate waste! I started looking in to commercial models around bringing empty spaces back in to use and I found Dougald and Space Makers! My background is in product development and innovation, youth enterprise and online communities. With Space Makers, I am now working on where online meets offline!
What are you working on right now?
I am an Associate at The Space Makers Agency and have been directing the project in Brixton Village. I have also founded The Digital Youth project that brings business and youth together creating real life work experiences for young people. Some of the key areas that I am developing are how to help projects move in to self-sustainability and how to engage young people in projects providing real life learning experiences whilst creating value for the project.
What help do you need?
I need helpers! Anyone interested in being engaged with Lambeth Projects should get in touch!
What would you be interested in helping people with?
I am revenue and user-experience focussed. I have worked in start ups and corporate. I have a strong business background - I can pull together business cases, develop propositions, write plans and lead people to get a job done. I am also good at making connections between people from different walks of life!

Hi Julia,

I'm interested in Saturday events at Brixton Village but can't often get away on Tuesdays to come to the meetings - would you be the right person to talk to? I want to do a one-off chocolate cake mountain (stall) for charity.

Thanks!

Can we work on this with you to use empty space for the community (to create trust libraries...)?...

Hi

Are you the person working on negotiating free leases from shops? Someone said about that at the Spacemakers NESTA meeting but I did not get to talk to them. I would love to talk to you if that is the case as http://www.MUSTart.org would like to put on activities for the general public in these locations:)

Hi Julia - Yes of course. My preference is to see if we can get this started in Sheffield and then see if there is a model that others can learn from and we can then share what we've learnt. Does that suit you? Helen
