Co-Working for Social Enterprises, Startups and SMEs
Our workspace hub is located right beside our beautiful community garden, providing green views and natural light in the space.
The best of both worlds! Our dedicated desks are located on the mezzanine in our main workspace hub via a staircase behind a locked door (step-free routes are also available). So you have easy access to all the shared amenities and vibrancy of our coworking hub, whilst having a secure space to share with 5 other users.
