I am nowhere near Aldershot but once you've got a location, if you
need a web presence then BitFolk will be happy to provide you with a
VPS for free, as we already do for:
- London Hackspace
- HAC:Manchester
- fizzPOP (Birmingham)
- Reading Hackspace
- One more that's still setting up and doesn't want to be named yet

Rent in London is probably a lot higher than rent in Aldershot
though. London Hackspace's expenses are hinted at here:
http://wiki.london.hackspace.org.uk/view/Budget
I am not sure that a large industrial unit¹ in Aldershot is going to
cost anywhere near £3,750/month.
But like London Hackspace, I recommend saying "the hackspace needs
an average of £x per member to survive. We ask that you pay what you
think the space is worth to you, to a minimum of £5/month". That way
you get free money from all the people who like the idea but
couldn't justify £20/month or whatever.
Cheers,
Andy
¹ LH has two units next to each other.
