Co-working space venture Welsh ICE is offering free space to businesses affected by flooding in the aftermath of Storm Dennis.
With many homes and businesses still assessing the damaged cause, the ICE campus in Caerphilly, said it would provide free space to businesses that have been displaced and in need of a place to work.
Campus director, Jamie McGowan said: “We’ve got a few vacant offices in our Lodge building at the moment that are all furnished and have internet access, so it only made sense to offer them to local businesses who may be looking for somewhere to base themselves while they figure out the next steps.
"We’ve also got plenty of space in our co-working areas for the one or two people teams so that even though their own offices may be out of action, they can stay open for business.
“Community is hugely important to us at Welsh ICE, and that extends across the Vaalleys and the surrounding areas. We’d urge any businesses or individuals, who perhaps work from home, that have been affected by the floods, to give us a call - we’ve got the tea and coffee on and are happy to give them a free home until they are back on their feet.”
Also in Cardiff free space is being offered to flood affected businesses at a new co-working and business hub located at St Peter’s Hall.
Managing director of the venue's operator, the Commercial Team Business Hub, Kris Agland, said: "We want to offer available space, which is a fully inclusive office facility, for free to any business’s until they are back on their feet and can get back into their premises.
“It’s certainly been a tough enough time for people affected, but hopefully this may be some kind of help to make things slightly easier for people impacted.”
