There is a plan afoot in Whitchurch, Hampshire to enable residents to work from home more.

One of the things that many people find troublesome about working from home is finding the right place to work from where they wont be disturbed by the kids during phoen calls, or just a place you can concentrate for a few hours.

The plan for Whitchurch is to create a central homeworkers resource in order to keep more of the residents in the town and help them avoid having to commute to a workplace. What it sounds like is a kind of friendly local business centre with hot-desking and  related office services available.

I think this is a great idea and it would be good to see these places springing up all over the country.
