Feeling the need to escape the home office and connect with others?

For our first BGH Co-Working Connect of 2025 - a monthly opportunity at various co-working sites across Greater Manchester - we’re setting up camp at Bruntwood 111 Piccadilly.

This is your chance to work smarter in fantastic office spaces, whether you need a private spot to focus, or want to engage with other GM Business Growth Hub staff, fellow Co-Working Connectors or even clients who are also using the space. We want to encourage ‘water cooler moments’, to expand our community and enable collaborations that wouldn’t have happened otherwise.

If you would like a look around the building, tours will be available. There may well be some extra curricular activity going on during the day too, to support you in connecting with others and expanding your network!

So join us and be part of the Co-Working Connect Crew.

As this workshop is fully-funded, businesses are subject to funders' eligibility criteria. If your place is confirmed, you will receive an email from us with further details.

  • Greater Manchester Clients Only
  • Micro business, small and medium-sized enterprise, or large business.
  • Social enterprises where these engage in economic activity.

We’re organising a volunteering day to deep clean Sidley House at Once Upon a Smile, and we’d love your help!

Tasks will include things like tidying up the chill-out zone, wiping down surfaces in the arts and crafts room, window cleaning and giving the baking room a full on clean.

Your efforts will help to continue to provide a welcoming space for the children they support.

A decent brew and biscuits will, of course, be provided. Plus, an exclusive tour of Sidley House for those who take part on the day.

 

Once Upon a Smile provides emotional and practical support to bereaved families at their time of need, to enable them to adjust to a new life without their loved one.

The organisation provides opportunities for children to understand and express their emotions in a fun and safe environment.

Event Eligibility:

  • Greater Manchester Clients Only
  • Sole trader, micro business, small and medium-sized enterprise, or large business.
  • Social enterprises where these engage in economic activity
