From Co-Working to Private Office: How Whisterfield Grew with Witney BIC

September 8th 2026
From Co-Working to Private Office: How Whisterfield Grew with Witney BIC

Every business starts somewhere. For Whisterfield, that starting point was a few days a week in the co-working space at Witney Business & Innovation Centre.

When Nick Birkett, owner of Whisterfield, first started using Witney BIC, he didn’t need a dedicated office. He simply wanted somewhere professional to work, meet people and have the flexibility to use a workspace when it suited his business.

So, rather than committing to a private office straight away, Nick started with using our co-working space a few times a week when he needed it.

And that’s exactly what our co-working offering is designed for.

Start small. Grow when you’re ready.

One of the things we love about supporting businesses at Witney BIC is seeing how their needs change as they grow.

For some businesses, working from home is the perfect place to start. But as the business develops, there can come a point where having a professional workspace, somewhere to meet clients, or simply a dedicated environment to focus becomes increasingly valuable.

Nick’s journey with Whisterfield is a great example.

He started by dipping into our co-working space when he needed it. As Whisterfield’s requirements changed, he eventually made the move into private office space at Witney BIC.

It’s a journey we see time and time again:

Co-working → private office → continued business growth.

There’s no pressure to take more space than you need. Instead, you can start with what works for your business and explore your options as you grow.

Flexible co-working to suit your business

Our co-working packages are designed to give businesses flexibility without the commitment of taking a private office.

Whether you need somewhere to work occasionally or want a regular base during the working week, we have options to suit different working styles:

Drop-In – £20 + VAT per day
Ideal if you only need a workspace occasionally.

Flexible – £40 + VAT per month & £10 per visit
For those who want a more regular co-working option without needing to be here every day.

Unlimited – £150 + VAT per month
For businesses wanting a consistent workspace, with access Monday – Friday, 9am–5pm.

You can also book our meeting rooms when you need somewhere professional to meet clients, hold a team meeting or run a workshop.

Come and see our new Business Lounge

We’re officially launching our new Business Lounge at Witney BIC and we’d love you to come and take a look.

Join us for our Business Lounge Launch & Networking Evening on Thursday 24 September, from 4:30pm – 6:30pm.

It’s a chance to see the new co-working space, take a look at our meeting rooms, meet other local businesses and find out how Witney BIC could support your business – whether you’re just starting out, growing your team or looking for a more professional place to work.

And who knows? Your business journey could start with just a few days of co-working, just like Nick’s did.

Start where you are. Grow when you’re ready.

We’d love to welcome you to Witney BIC.
