A Bit About Us
Society1 is an independent coworking space in the heart of Preston city centre, owned and run by a small family team. Founded in 2017, Society1 has grown into a thriving community of businesses, freelancers, solopreneurs, remote team members and many more. We are not sector specific and we have a rich and diverse mix of businesses based here.
Society1 was created by Brendan, Catarina and Chris – a family team with a strong vision to foster a friendly and supportive community. The building was Catarina and Chris’ family restaurant before the team converted it into the creative and inspiring space it is today. Our inviting and welcoming space is situated on Cross Street, off Winckley Square, in the centre of Preston. Since opening, Society1 has become a firm favourite as a friendly, comfortable and professional place to work.
What We Do at Society1
Society1 is a fully flexible workspace, with a range of ways to use us. We have hot desks, dedicated desks and group spaces to work from.
We also have meeting rooms, drop in call rooms and an event space. Our flexible monthly plans allow you to use Society1 in a way to suit your needs. From ad-hoc coworking days to dedicated desks, you can find a plan to cover exactly what you need.
We have a super fast internet connection to support you in your work, comfortable seats, areas to focus, and spaces to break out. Our kitchen is equipped with a bean to cup coffee machine serving delicious coffee from our local coffee provider. We have a range of teas too all of which are included in your plan rates.

Coworking
Our coworking plans are perfect for freelancers, solopreneurs, consultants, hybrid workers, and anyone working from home.
For those who need a change of scenery and professional place to work, drop-in day pass options or monthly plans – from one day per month to unlimited access – give you all the flexibility you need to work how you want.
Everyone’s reason for coworking is different. Getting out of the house, meeting new people, and making connections are just a few. We are extremely community-focused and like to make sure everyone feels comfortable and welcome. Our team is here to help you decide which plan suits you best and get you settled in.

Community
Community is at the heart of everything we do. Coworking is about getting out of the house and being with other people. The benefits are huge. Meeting some friendly faces and having a chat over a brew is a powerful antidote to working alone. Our relaxed and friendly style fosters an open and welcoming community to be part of. With no forced networking or introductions, you’re able to get to know people at your own pace.
We host lots of different events at Society1 – from very casual like our breakfast socials and happy hours, to formal, organised speaker events. We also partner with a variety of local groups to host their meet-ups, like Coffee Work Sleep Creatives, Lancashire Tech hub and Creative Lancashire. All of our events offer a great way to learn something new and get to know other people from both Society1 and the local community.
