Businesses can find out more about city centre commercial workplace at free open day on 26 April 2023

Gresham Works, the Leicester city centre hub for serviced offices, flexible coworking and meeting spaces, is celebrating its first anniversary in April 2023.

As of early February 2023, Gresham Works is now home to 15 businesses, taking 74 desks, which is 50 per cent occupied and ahead of target.

To celebrate this anniversary, Gresham Works is hosting an open day from 9am to 5pm on 26 April 2023 when small business owners will be invited to try a hot desk for free for the day. Free tea, coffee and wifi will also be provided. Desks will be available on a first come first served basis and up to 60 desks will be available on the day.

Gresham Works is also offering 12 months for the price of 10 for a hot desk, saving £250 when compared to the standard contract agreement.

To register for the free open day, please contact Gresham Works at greshamworks@leicester.gov.uk or call 0116 296 8000.

Crystal Carter, Development Manager for Dock and Gresham Works, said: “We are excited to open our doors for people to come and experience our workspace services for free and meet our one-year-old business community that is made up of organisations from various sectors. Co-working encourages collaboration which helps people thrive at work. It is an opportunity not to be missed, especially with our ‘10 for 12 Hotdesk Offer’.”

Atom Engine, software development specialists will be attending the event, offering free advice and consultation for existing businesses and new tech-based start-ups. Grant Carlisle, Director, said: “Gresham has been a nice change back from remote working. Despite the majority of our staff still working remotely around the country, we now have offices in Leeds and Leicester allowing us to expand our recruitment range whilst still allowing our staff to come into a team working setting when required.”

The Sir Thomas White Charity, an organisation providing loans for new business ideas and businesses needing investment, will be there on the open day, telling small business owners about the interest free loans that they have available.

Lucy Womack, STWLC Chair, said: “We're very excited to be attending Gresham Works’ open day on 26 April, as the workplace marks its one-year anniversary. On the day, we look forwarding to connecting with business owners from Leicester's start-up community, to hear their stories and explain how our interest-free business loans could help with their next steps. As a charity we feel very passionate about opening doors to growth, and firmly believe that our offer of interest-free business loans up to £20,000, repayable over nine years with nothing to repay in the first three, is simply an opportunity too good to ignore.”
