Do I need planning permission for a co-working space in London?

Hello: Great that you have some traction in this marketplace. Now you’re looking to grow. Your best resources for determining where expansion makes sense are your current customers. They know you, know what you offer and hopefully have a level of comfort with your business. So reach out and: * conduct a brief (3-5 question) survey on their needs outside of office/desk space * talk to your best clients personally to discuss their office-related challenges * meanwhile, are you doing everything you can do to build up your client base? Lastly, given the knowledge you’ve built up around the office/coworking space, perhaps it’s time to explore acquiring your own property to run. If you wish to discuss, send me a PM through Clarity for 15 free minutes. Thanks, Kerby

One Tree Hill Collection, a development comprising 14 houses by Singapore- listed construction and property group Lum Chang Holdings, is scheduled for launch soon. It is not just any landed housing project, however. “Located right smack in prime District 10, in the vicinity of luxury residences such as The Marq on Paterson Hill, The Colonnade and Cliveden at Grange, One Tree Hill is a highly desirable estate,” says Peter Ow, director of property at Lum Chang Holdings. “It’s accessible from Grange Road, Paterson Road and Orchard Boulevard.” Lum Chang therefore decided to develop a luxurious development befitting its prestigious address. K2LD Architects was selected to design the houses at One Tree Hill Collection. “K2LD has a track record for designing luxury houses, especially Good Class Bungalows,” says Ow. “That’s why we chose them.”

Hi! Hope you're doing great! I've work and interact with several co-works, helping them, as part of them with memberships and also using their facilities to organize events, i've seen a lot of them grow and some fail. So, i can share some strategies to have in mind : 1)Offer special discounts for the opening of the co-work for a limited time. 2)Always communicate the benefits of working in your co-work, and why they should go there. 3)Invite communities to use your facilities for meetups and similar events. 4)Go out and reach your potentials customers like business , tech students and startups. 5) You've said "we",so one of you should be focus only in business development, is the easiest and fastest way you're going to grow. If you want some help developing more in deep these strategies i will gladly help you. Best,

If you have an existing space, why not consider leveraging the current tenants for part of the money needed? Spend some money (tenants can pitch in for that instead) in a fundraising party! Invite local band, caterer (ask for discount in exchange of promotion) have some context for the event such as idea pitching, or brownbag, etc... as the main entertainment... sell tickets for that event. Might not give you all you need but will help get there. _ aim for double what you spend at a minimum! Try gofundme.com Get in the news and ask for community support. Get infront of the local development offices ans ask for grants (this is common) as it helps development. These are just some ideas. best of luck
