Darkroom hire
The Hastings area currently lacks a community darkroom despite growing demand (The community darkroom at Inspire Artworks - see the "Photography at Inspire" Facebook group - is temporarily closed). There are a large number of private darkrooms in the area, so ask around. If you are want to hire yours out & would like a listing here please get in touch. Or, do a course at the local college to gain access to their darkroom.
The nearest hire space until something new gets going in Hastings is probably Monolab in Brighton.
