As our youngest leaves WRAP, it feels like an especially significant milestone because it also marks five years since we opened our doors to the Brighton community. The business, and little Sofia, have grown up together and have both presented Ed and me with plenty of tears and tantrums along the way!

“All Coworking Spaces are Equal, But Some Are More Equal Than Others”

For the last 5 years WRAP has been supporting parents returning to work, building an mazing community and a place to grow, as a parent and a professional.

From working at WRAP for the past year I have seen from the inside what makes it so special.

What is Coworking? Well, it’s very simple according to Google, Coworking is “the use of an office or other working environment by people who are self-employed or working for different employers, typically so as to share equipment, ideas, and knowledge.” Although those who have used a coworking space before will know there is a lot more to being a member of a coworking space than that.

Queen’s Road has many great places to grab some food. If you are looking for a place to grab a bite on your next lunch break at WRAP or you’re walking down tot he beach from Brighton station, here are all the best stops for food!

Returning to work after having a baby can feel like stepping into an entirely new role, especially as often it comes hot on the heels of rediscovering yourself as a new parent. It can be a whirlwind of emotions, from anxiety to excitement. After having my first child, I found myself rushing between nursery drop-offs and meetings, then trying to work from home while facing endless piles of laundry and chores. It was tough to focus on anything, and I often felt guilty from being so far away from my baby.

The way we work has changed, and in 2025, office spaces are finally catching up. Gone are the days of renting huge spaces "just in case." Gone are the endless rows of empty desks midweek, the fluorescent lights, the soulless floor plans. The future? It's smarter, more flexible, and more human-centred, workspaces designed to fit real life, not the other way around.

Holding meetings is essential for businesses, whether it’s for brainstorming ideas, making important decisions, solving problems, or creating a mutual understanding among teams. But have you ever noticed how much the room itself impacts how productive and professional those meetings feel?

Brighton has long been celebrated as a haven for creative freelancers, offering a unique blend of artistic heritage, a vibrant community, and innovative coworking spaces that foster collaboration and growth.

When it comes to the most creative cities in the UK, Brighton is sure to always make the top 3. With so much to see and do, we compiled a list of some of the cities' staple creative spaces for you to check out.

At WRAP, we’re deeply committed to sustainability, recognising that while we’re not perfect, we are continually striving to improve our practices. Our goal is to create a work and childcare environment that minimises environmental impact while fostering a culture of responsibility and awareness.

Our generation lives online. Between work, social media, and the endless stream of updates, doomscrolling has quietly slipped into our daily routine like an unwelcome guest. It’s become a habit for many of us, and honestly? It’s hard to break.

Working from home often starts with high hopes of productivity but quickly turns into a battle with distractions, discomfort, and blurred boundaries. The sofa or kitchen table might seem convenient, but they fall short in providing the environment needed for true success. Enter the dedicated desk: the ultimate solution for those who want a workspace that feels like home but works like an office.

In today’s dynamic work environment, the concept of coworking has evolved far beyond the simple act of sharing office space. It has become a hub of collaboration, creativity, and community. Whether you’re a freelancer, entrepreneur, or part of a remote team, a shareable coworking membership could be the perfect solution to enhance your productivity and broaden your professional network.

Finding the right office space isn’t just about square footage – it’s about creating the perfect environment for your business to thrive. Whether you’re leading a growing team, scaling up a consultancy, or looking for a flexible HQ, your office should work for you – not the other way around.
