Out of office

A round up of London's top spots for remote workers

- HANNAH BRANDLER

Members clubs and co-working spaces are increasingly on the rise, particularly after the pandemic encouraged people to adopt more flexible hours and locations. Such venues provide a range of work and leisure opportunities that better fit the modern era of remote and hybrid working, but it's worth doing your research to find the right one.

We spent the day at four different venues in London to get a taste of what's on offer. Whether you're looking for a space to collaborate, entertain clients, connect with like-minded people, or simply want a fantastically floral backdrop for Zoom calls - there's a space for you.
