Coworking is sharing a workspace with other businesses, organisations, or individuals, flexibly. Unlike traditional offices that are tied down to set hours and set desks, a coworking space allows you to start and finishing working in the shared workspace when you please, with the ability to choose where you sit.

Most shared offices are serviced, meaning you gain access to the likes of fast Wi-Fi, free printing, free coffee & tea, and of course, electricity and heating as part of your hourly cost or monthly membership.  This means that working in a coworking space can be cheaper and offer a better alternative than purchasing or renting an office depending on your business size and needs.

The price for unlimited monthly membership is £200 + VAT.

The Purple Office includes the usual benefits such as complimentary tea & coffee, free printing, high speed Wi-Fi, free parking, and superb video conferencing facilities. On top of this you will also gain:

• Unlimited access from 7am-10pm, 7 days a week
• Half price meeting room space at only £5 + VAT
• Half price guest invite at only £5 + VAT
• Invitation to networking and community events
