A CO-WORKING space has reopened in Prescot with a brand new look.
Clockwork Studios opened its doors on Eccleston Street in Prescot last year, as a not-for-profit co-working space.
Providing hot-desking, private rooms, business startup advice, and upskilling and employability services, the community interest company has helped thousands of people through its events and passion for the community.

Started by local business owners Francesca Manca and Kelly Roskell, the company, the venue is said to have grown into a thriving community over the past 18 months, forming many collaborations with other local businesses.
The business owners also place a large focus on sustainability, positive mental wellbeing and support people with neurodiverse conditions such as autism, PDA and ADHD.
With this in mind, the co-working space has been recently renovated to be a calm space for work, while also waiving the hotdesking fee for the price of purchasing a hot drink.

Kelly and Fran said: "Having been open for 18 months now, we had a chance to chat with the Prescot community, and we transformed Clockwork to be the space the area needs.
"Paying an entrance fee to hotdesk and coffee on top of that can be challenging if you are channeling all your energy and resources into starting a business - or if you're a student, or a job seeker.
"So we decided to do what no other co-working space has ever done: waive the hotdesking fee, as long as our guests are prepared to pay for a hot drink.
"A delicious barista coffee, free saved pastry, and a space designed to be quiet and welcoming, and inspire productivity- all for the price of a coffee. It doesn't get better than that!"
Through a collaboration with Food Social, a no-waste food initiative which collects surplus foods from supermarkets and redistributes them to the community, the co-working space can offer fresh pastries, muffins and treats free of charge with every hot drink purchased.
Clockwork Studios is open Monday to Friday 8.30am to 5.30pm.
