I run a smart, active, busy co-working centre with meeting rooms on the grounds of The Royal Agricultural University offering funded business advice and support to local GL businesses. The building, only 5 years old, was up for a design award and we've yet to meet anyone who isn't happy with the beautiful countryside surroundings and isn't productive in.
