Work in a mansion

An unusual business centre at Clevedon Hall, a Victorian mansion in north Somerset has started operations. The policy at the Enterprise Development Centre (EDC) is to support business growth by providing enhanced managed serviced offices with low overheads and flexibility. EDC’s Peter McCarthy commented: “Our philosophy is to support small and medium sized businesses (SMEs) to achieve sustained profitable growth.” The flexible contracts can include a range of shared services, such as scaleable software applications as well as mentoring by seasoned
entrepreneurs. The first business at the EDC was Goodridge Environmental, a specialist turbine and general power provider specialising in remote areas. Goodridge’s Chris Williams said: “The EDC is perfect for an aspiring young business like ours. It’s a supportive entrepreneurial environment as well as being in stunning surroundings.”
He added that “discussions with the EDC management team has already helped to save our business nearly £3,000 by following their advice on using hosted shared platform software.”
