ENabling a Fairer, flatter london

Socio-Economic Report 2025

Workspace's 2025 socio-economic report draws on detailed research and surveys to assess our impact on local employment, small businesses, neighbourhood resilience, economic vibrancy, and environmental performance.

The findings demonstrate that Workspace creates measurable value for local people, businesses, and the wider London economy – helping to build a fairer, flatter London. Fairer, by creating accessible, affordable spaces where more people can participate in the city’s success. Flatter, by expanding opportunity beyond the centre, supporting enterprise and community in the boroughs where it’s most needed.
