East Devon District Council (EDDC) is hosting a special event to showcase eight newly available office spaces at the East Devon Business Centre, in Honiton, supporting independent businesses with affordable workspaces on flexible leases.

The open office event will be held on Thursday 7 November 2024 from 12pm to 3.30pm. EDDC invites small business owners, freelancers, and professionals to drop by the centre and enjoy some tea and cake, while exploring what is on offer.

Why Choose East Devon Business Centre?

Whether you've outgrown your home office or need a secondary base for your team, the East Devon Business Centre offers the perfect solution. With eight available offices of varying sizes, there's an option to suit every need:

• Smaller offices are ideal for one to three people.
• Larger offices can comfortably accommodate up to six people.
• Tenants benefit from a convenient, commutable location and nearby lunch spots, making it an attractive and practical choice for businesses.

The centre is already home to nine local businesses and provides an affordable step up from working at home, with a supportive community of like-minded professionals.

The flexible rental terms allow small businesses to experience a commercial office environment before committing to long-term leases with commercial landlords.
