How it works
Mesh Hub UK describes itself as "Independent mesh networking across the UK". Its website offers community tools, maps and live network information for Meshtastic and MeshCore users, plus Events and Community pages.
It is a community hub and tooling site, not a separate network protocol. The meshes it points UK users to are Meshtastic and MeshCore, which are covered on their own pages in this directory. Who operates the site is not stated; it has an admin login.
How to join
Use the "Join the community" link on the site, which goes to a Discord. The group is also one of two UK entries on the official Meshtastic local groups page.
What it realistically gives you
LoRa text and telemetry only, on the Meshtastic and MeshCore meshes. It does not carry internet traffic. We found no node count, founding date or bandwidth figure for the hub itself.
