The small businesses, startups, and entrepreneurs, which between them account for 99% of the borough’s economy, are facing increasing rents. Some are being forced to leave or shut down.
Ealing Council has published an affordable workspace delivery plan. It describes how it will help create more workspace that startups and small businesses can afford in our 7 towns.
Affordable workspace is commercial space, such as offices, shops, or industrial units, for local businesses, charities, and social projects to rent at below market rates. It must be available for at least 15 years.
The council’s new plan lays out how it will:
- help local entrepreneurs, charities, and community groups
- work together with partners to support key industries and start-ups
- make it easier for developers and workspace providers to offer affordable spaces
