FAQs

We are proud of our coworking space and would love to show you around. Simply book a tour, or alternatively call us on 023 8112 5014 or email info@sofourteen.co.uk to find out more.

Whilst some members are looking for a more traditional ‘work station’, others like the freedom of hotdesking. Our flexible membership packages are tailored to meet these varied requirements. Read more here about the options available.

We have an online booking portal coming very soon, but in the meantime to register your interest or rent a desk, please call us on 023 8112 5014 or email info@sofourteen.co.uk. Prior to your membership starting, we ask for you to provide proof of address and photo ID and then you're good to go.

We have two private meeting rooms which are available to all our members to book on an hourly basis. A number of hours of complimentary hire is included for fixed and flexi desk members, plus a discount on the hourly rate thereafter. Additional hours are charged and invoiced to you at the end of the month.

You can access SO Fourteen between 8am and 6pm Monday to Friday. Support staff are available during these hours. The offices will be closed on public holidays.

Whilst we don’t have parking available on site, we are in close proximity to the city’s many car parks. For more information, click here. On road pay and display parking is available outside the office for a maximum stay of 2 hours.

We do however have cycle racks available. These are included in the Fixed Desk membership package and available to hire for only £2 + VAT per day for all other members.

Our members work across many different industries and their reasons for using our coworking space are varied. We have freelancers who seek an alternative to their home office or trying to work in busy coffee shops. Our members who are remote workers seek the buzz of an office environment, without the commute! We also have members who are starting up a new business or have established a small business and enjoy the flexibility SO Fourteen provides, as well as the opportunity to be a part of a growing business community. Find out more about our community here.

We love meeting new people! We have two private meeting rooms available to book for hosting guests, who will also be able to use the communal spaces. Although guests won’t have use of desk space unless they sign up to a membership package, subject to availability they may be able to book a Day Pass. Please note that guests will need to be signed in and out by our Community Manager, and we require a minimum of 24 hours' notice should you wish to bring a guest on any day.

If you have reserved a fixed desk, you may leave your belongings on the desk but this is at your own risk. We cannot take responsibility for any items left on the premises. We also have secure lockers available, which are included in the fixed desk membership and available to hire to our other members for storing items overnight.

We understand that calls will need to be made and just ask that you consider your fellow coworkers with regards to the volume and frequency. The more informal break out areas offer a more relaxed atmosphere, so we suggest that calls are made in these areas if possible. We also have private phone booths that you can hire by the half-hour if you need privacy.

Subject to compatibility, members on a Fixed Desk membership package may be able to use their own desktop telephone unit and integrate it on the SO Fourteen network within your work area. Additional charges and terms may apply which will be added to your Membership Fee.

When you are set up as a new member, an account will be set up and payment made monthly in advance via standing order. We may also accept payment by credit or debit card, or by direct bank transfer, subject to agreement.

For fixed, flexi and hot desk members joining after the first day of the month, the first month’s fees will be pro-rated if joining before the 15th of the month. If joining after the 15th of the month, you will need to make an advanced payment for the rest of that month and then for the following month.

The fee for each subsequent month must be paid in cleared funds to our bank account no later than the 1st of that month, together with any additional charges incurred in the previous month.

Payment for day passes, short-term and bespoke memberships must be made in advance for the full fee.

Please note that if payment of any fees or charges are not made within 3 working days of the due date, we reserve the right to charge a late payment fee in accordance with the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act.

The prices listed do not include VAT. As a VAT-registered company, we are legally obliged to charge VAT. However, if you are VAT registered, you can claim VAT payments back.

It depends on your membership option. Some of our membership options include complimentary use of the facilities and discounts on additional use. View our membership options here.

Where these are not included within the membership package, charges are as follows:

Large meeting room - £20 (+VAT) per hour
Small meeting room - £15 (+VAT) per hour
Private phone booth - £5 (+VAT) per 1/2 hour
Locker hire - £3 (+VAT) per day
Bike rack - £2 (+VAT) per day

All the above resources can be booked via your account on our membership portal.

No, we do not ask for a deposit from members.

Unfortunately not. Any unused days cannot be rolled over into the following month or transferred to another member.

Whilst we would be sad to see you go, we understand that working needs change for a variety of reasons. For this reason, we don’t have long notice periods. We ask that you provide us with a month’s notice prior to your next invoice date.

SO Fourteen will be hosting both social and professional events for our members. These events are advertised in our members' portal as well as around our coworking space.

SO Fourteen is accessible for wheelchair users. We have a lift up to the second floor and accessible toilet and shower facilities.
