‘THE SHEDS’ LAUNCH One of Wirral’s most innovative workspaces was officially opened when over 150 businesses attended the launch event of The Sheds at Pacific Road Business Hub on 27th April. The Sheds offer a home away from home inside a spacious ‘garden shed’ environment, while businesses can make the most of open-plan desk space in a friendly, productive and vibrant co-working space. Declaring The Sheds officially open, Paula Basnett, CEO of Wirral Chamber of Commerce said “We want to level the playing field for Wirral’s creative sector so they can have the benefits currently enjoyed at successful co-working spaces in other areas of the country. I firmly believe that The Sheds in itiative will go way beyond simply being seen as a business space and will become a significant cultural and social hive of activity in Wirral.” The opening ceremony was conducted by Peter Johnson, founder of Park Group PLC and a key backer of Wirral Chamber’s Enterprise Hub. He praised Wirral’s spirit of entrepreneurship and wished success to all the new and future tenants before unveiling a ceremonial plaque. The Sheds offer permanent spaces together with daily and weekly options for desk space which come with hi-speed Wi-Fi, a modern designed communal area, meeting rooms and bottomless tea and coffee.
