CoWork & Create
A Collaborative Community for Entrepreneurs

Independent business owners and creative entrepreneurs are invited to join Cowork & Create, a co-working community designed to inspire collaboration, connection, creativity and an opportunity to learn new things from your peers. The event takes place every last Friday (may change from time to time) in the month at the historic and beautiful Grantham House (National Trust) and marks an exciting new chapter for local entrepreneurs seeking a supportive space to work, learn share ideas and grow together and not be at home alone! Learn from your peers and create a community of like-minded folk.

The coworking event offers attendees the opportunity to:
- Work alongside like-minded entrepreneurs in a relaxed and inspiring setting
- Build accountability partnerships to stay focused and motivated
- Learn new things in our mini workshops each month
- Share ideas, spark collaborations and support one another’s creative journeys
- Get support creating engaging social media content
- Network informally while you work
- Promote your business with no restrictions or “lockouts”
- Enjoy a friendly, welcoming atmosphere with free roadside parking nearby
Cowork & Create isn’t just another networking event. It’s the start of a thriving community built on creativity, connection and mutual support.
With just 10 spaces available, early registration is essential. Tickets are £20 per person and advance booking is required.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY…
“I have worked from home for many years and this was my first experience of a co-working session, I have been looking for the right opportunity for ages and this was it. The perfect blend of interesting women, great conversations, space to work and a great location. Deborah made sure the day was a calm and welcoming break from the same four walls, I will be back again.”
Karen Lifford Coatching
“It was a fabulous day, I got so much work done too – it really works being in a room with other people who also need to crack on! Thanks for having me for the photography workshop”
Nicola Auckland Photography
“A brilliant day at Deborah Firmstone‘s co-working day where Nicola Auckland showed me how to master walking shots with a tripod. A great, productive and supportive day with lots of super ladies. I’d recommend it! We all got lots of work done but in a ‘in the office’ kind of feel, with chat, coffee and just a touch of giggle…”
