Introducing “A Little Bit of Co-Working” in Stone

We’re excited to announce a new initiative coming to Stone—a pop-up co-working space designed to connect our town’s growing community of remote workers and freelancers!

A New Way to Work in Stone

Since the pandemic, many of us have embraced working from home, but we know that sometimes a change of scenery and some company can make all the difference. That’s why we’re partnering with the fantastic team at The Butchers Block to create a welcoming co-working space in Stone.

Trial Launch Details

We’re kicking off with a three-week trial, running every Tuesday from January 28th through to February 11th, 9am-3pm. During this pilot phase, we’re making it free to try out the space!

What’s included:

• Free entry (with an optional donation box to support the initiative)
• Complimentary filter coffee and tea throughout the day
• High-speed WiFi
• Comfortable working spaces
• Electrical outlets if you need a recharge
• A cosy log fire for these winter days
• Access to quiet areas for calls (though not completely private)
• Toilets, including an accessible toilet
• Bar will be open
• Special lunch service from 11am-1pm

Perfect for Everyone

Whether you’re a full-time remote worker, freelancer, or just need a productive space for a few hours, you’re welcome to join us. Pop in for an hour, stay for the day, or just come by for a chat – we’d love to see you!

Simply show up with your laptop and whatever else you need for a productive day. There’s no need to book – just come along and find your perfect spot.
