A provider of flexible office spaces is targeting York as part of a major expansion. Leeds-based Workwell already operates two centres in the city, and recently opened a flagship venue at Copthall House in Harrogate, says it has ambitions to open ten sites over the next decade. Expansion will be focussed on major professional services hubs such as Manchester, York and Edinburgh, alongside further growth in Leeds and Birmingham. Though Workwell has not identified a site in York yet, already, such offerings are increasingly available in York.

Wizu Workspace is to open a similar facility at the nearby East Coast House, also on Skeldergate. The moves come as the Helmsley Group reports a boom in office space demand in York. The Workwell expansion will consist of both owned and leased sites, although the business aims for the majority to be owned to maintain long-term control over its workspace environments. WorkWell's model is based on delivering high-quality flexible office spaces designed to promote wellbeing, productivity and hybrid working practices. Promising a strong focus on service and workplace experience, the business has grown steadily since its early days at Carwood Park, East Leeds, in 2007. It now supports 800 office users per month across its sites. Oliver Corrigan, managing director of WorkWell, said: 'This next chapter is a natural progression for us. We've seen the positive impact of creating spaces where people genuinely enjoy working, and we're excited to bring that to more businesses across the North.' While most of WorkWell's portfolio caters to professional services firms, its recent acquisition of Aire Street Workshops in Leeds stands apart. The historic building, previously owned by Leeds City Council, houses around 30 creative businesses and will retain its unique character under WorkWell's stewardship. WorkWell says it prioritises premium service delivery and fostering a happy, productive staff culture. The company's ethos revolves around creating an environment where employee well-being and satisfaction directly impact business success. The company added its focus on customer experience and a hands-on, self-funded approach has allowed WorkWell to grow steadily using only bank debt. For details on Workwell, go to:
