The University of Sunderland opens the first FabLab in the NorthEast - a place where you can make (almost) anything!

We have some sad news I am afraid. FabLab Sunderland will be closing at the end of July 2024. It has been a rewarding journey and we hope we made a positive difference in the world. Thank you to everyone for being amazing.
