About this space

The Hall
Set within the historic 1861 Public Hall, The Hall is our largest and most versatile space, a bright, high-ceilinged room with genuine period character. It's the natural choice for anything that needs a bit more room to breathe.

Capacity & availability
Available on weekdays, The Hall comfortably accommodates meetings, training sessions, conferences and larger gatherings of up to 40 people. Whether you're planning a full-day workshop, a team away day or a community meeting, the space flexes to suit.

A space with presence
With its Victorian architecture and generous proportions, The Hall brings something a standard conference room can't. It's a space that makes an occasion of the everyday meeting, while still being practical and well-equipped for a working day.

Welcome to Withington Works at WPHI, a community-led coworking space. We are pleased you have decided to try the Workspace, and in doing so you are also supporting a local charity. The workspace is shared by local professionals from different sectors creating a community atmosphere in which we can share ideas, resources and knowledge.

We’re a co-working space with a self-management approach. We provide space, wi-fi, and teas and coffees. Respect those around you, if others are using the space at the same time as you, please think about your fellow co-workers.

Dogs are welcome in all ground-floor rooms. Please keep them out of the first-floor co-working space so everyone can work comfortably.
