The Propeller Hub
Our modern coworking business space is based in the heart of UCLan’s campus, making you apart and a part of this enterprising community. We offer space to work with a growing community of businesses backed up with mentoring, business support and access to UCLan facilities and services.
Changes to service due to COVID-19
We intend to re-open the Hub once the government guidelines permit, with the following safety measures in place.
- All Hub users must complete an online health and safety induction
- Keep associate cards on you at all times
- Wear a face mask when not seated at your desk
- Keep 2m distance wherever possible
- Only 1 person will be permitted in the kitchen at a time
- No utensils or crockery will be provided
- The meeting room and boardroom are currently closed
- Hand gel and surface wipes will be available
- Regular cleaning will be carried out
- Hot desk users must reserve a place in advance in order to eliminate desk-sharing. Each hot desk user will be assigned a desk for the day
Email teampropeller@uclan.ac.uk if you wish to return to the Hub and a member of the team will contact you. We are still considering new applications.
Member information
Hub members are given a UCLan trading address. This does not, however, allow Hub members to say they are endorsed by UCLan or Propeller.
