We have had confirmation that we can partially re-open the Innovation Centre.  Offices located at the front of the building are now operational and companies currently located in these offices can move back in.  This affects 20 of the current 60 offices.  If you wish to know if this affects your company, please contact Ross Clark asap.

We have also been advised that a further 28 offices will be back in operation within 6 weeks (approx), with the remainder of the work being carried out over a further 6 week period. 

Please keep in touch with your Centre advisor whilst you are in temporary accommodation so we can ensure we continue supporting your business during this period.  Advisors will be based at the Innovation Centre.

The switchboard services will resume by Friday 22nd May.
