What our Coworking Members in Farnham think of our coworking or hotdesk office in Farnham, Surrey

The Space was already designed in January to be a low density coworking or workspace in Farnham, we only have desks for up to 15 hotdesks in our centre across 2 floors in our charming centre on East Street. The historic building has vaulted ceilings, huge sash windows and oozes character right in the centre of Farnham so is already light, airy and has the feeling of space. So when Covid arrived we were lucky as we didn’t have to make many changes. What we did do was half the number of desks for our co-working members and do all the necessary sanitisation precautions that have now become the norm with Covid and the return to work.

As the lockdown eases, we have already made precautions to make our coworking venue in Farnham, The Space, covid-secure. All to allow our members to benefit from a productive place to work in Farnham: 🌱 Only taking bookings for every other desk 🌱 Sanitisation stations 🌱 Hygienic Handles on doors that can't be removed 🌱 Daily deep cleans

After 3+ weeks of working from home in and around Farnham, we are curious how the workplace will change once the brakes are lifted in Surrey and people start to return to work. Things for sure will have changed in that even the most traditional leaders and managers must have changed their view on how productive their team can be working from home. I for one have found some aspects truly challenging (the locked in a room syndrome and the lack of human intervention), but equally there are aspects that I have enjoyed (eating with the family at a reasonable hour, not commuting, walking the dog for your screen-break) and sometimes productivity has shot up (ability to really focus etc).
