Hi all  
looking forward to meeting you all in person soon… just as long as I can complete membership procedure.

The “become member” button only results in a error 504 server timeout message. Its been like this for a few days, is this a problem with the back end or on my machine?

Any ideas?

Lawrie

Hi Tomthe error is on this page [https://members.southlondonmakerspace.org/membership](https://members.southlondonmakerspace.org/membership) The button at the bottom labelled “Become Member” is the problem  
I don’t know if it makes a difference but I tried subscribing with £5/month (I am currently unemployed and with no source of income, hoping to soon make a living as an artist, hopefully makerspace will help me)  
Thanks  
Lawrie

Ah, its a case of a bad error message. Discounts for \<£20 have to be agreed with the trustees beforehand. Email [trustees@southlondonmakerspace.org](mailto:trustees@southlondonmakerspace.org) and we’ll sort something out 😄
