Adam found the Asbestos survey. It suggests the walls are asbestosy. We now need to approach the idea of getting a community grant from the perspective of definitely having asbestos removal costs.
Other grant ideas:
TV/Projector for upstairs and downstairs
3D Printer (a rounded corners one)
Wall removal
Weather monitoring
3-phase power sensing
Site security
Amateur radio projects, (WebSDR, VHF/UHF satellite tracker), etc.
Current space TODOs:
approach Jack to see if we can go about organizing a day to do the installation of the bird blocker.
For best results (full real power calculation) we would want a GPO installed in the switchboard, so would need to get an electrician in to quote for this, and to safely add the current clamps.
I can try to get a quote for this if the committee is keen to progress this.
It would be useful to have access to the key for the external switchboard/meterbox, if i was to get someone to show up for a quote, as it may be easier/cheaper to do the monitoring at that point than the internal one.
Also if i am getting quoting done is there any other pressing electrical modification needs?
e.g. adding in those 32A outlets
