Why join?
The Club offers two things:
- Opportunities to meet new people whilst working and/or doing fun things. So far we have had a go at creative writing, photography, crafting + mindful colouring! (look at the dates to see what’s next)
- A peer-group. A small, intimate group group, where you can be comfortably vulnerable, and ask for help + advice
To get away from:
- Stuffy networking events (which quite frankly can be AWKS)
- Your home, which becomes totally un-inspirational after several months or years of WFH. And don’t talk to me about the household chores that are just winking at us to get sorted (hello laundry piles on the kitchen table)
- The loneliness of self employment, especially solopreneurship! This is a chance to come together + feel part of a community that’s bigger than a team of 1!
The day includes:
- Time to work in a shared space between 10am + 3pm
- Soft drinks, tea + coffee
- WiFi
- Fun activity or mini workshop
FAQ's
Is there car parking nearby?
There is! Within 5 mins walk there is on-street, free parking. Cheadle Hulme train station is also 5 minutes walk away.
Is there somewhere I can take calls if I have any?
Yes, there are different options for taking calls in more private nooks of the cafe/bar area. You can choose to sit alongside others, or work in a corner on your own to get your head down!
Outside of the Club dates
There’s a WhatsApp channel for regulars Club members to communicate closely with one another. Sharing what they are up to, asking questions, getting feedback, finding suppliers and generally cheerleading one another!
What is the structure of the Club?
Most Clubbers arrive between 10am and 11am and stay to around 3pm. We often stop at 1.30pm ish to introduce ourselves to one another and have a discussion or workshop around a topic that relates to freelance life – recently we have talked about creativity, goals and photography. Coffees and teas throughout are included in your ticket price. Cakes, croissants and lunches are available to buy separately.
