¶ Inclusivity
We don't care if you're a member or a newbie: We would like you to feel comfortable at our space. Our most important space rule is this:
We take inclusivity very seriously and hence have put together an Awareness Contact as well as our xRoots mentors as personal contacts for you.
¶ Accessibility
xHain hack- and makespace is located on the ground floor. We have a small ramp for the front door available upon request. Unfortunately our toilet is not yet accessible for wheelchairs, we (currently) lack the financial means for the reconstruction work that would be necessary. We're very sorry about this 
The electronics workbench is elevated and mounted on the wall and is wheelchair accessible. We do not have an elevator and unfortunately the basement is only accessible via stairs. If you have special needs, please send us a message or talk to us, we are always eager to remove barriers wherever we can.
You can find more info about our physical space and a floor map.
¶ Accessibility curator
The accessibility curator works towards reducing avoidable barriers which hinder the usability of xHain for people of diverse backgrounds and abilities. Areas covered include but are not limited to:
- physical abilities (mobility, eyesight, hearing, tallness, handedness, ...)
- cognitive abilities (neurotypicality, sensory sensibility, ...)
- mental state (fear of dogs and other animals, ...)
- age
- gender and sexual orientation
- origin (world region, (perceived) ethnic group, milieu, languages spoken, ...)
- formal education
The accessibility curator surveys the space with respect to the categories mentioned above, talk to the relevant members, identifies barriers and works towards establishing setups and processes on how to reduce them. For instance, the accessibility curator might seek contact with left-handed people to see which areas are currently only equipped for right-handed people. The same applies for the other categories mentioned above.
The current accessibility curator is Sebastian @snordhoff.
