Half of self-employed workers who took time off sick last year went back before they were ready.

Not because they'd recovered. Because they couldn't afford not to.

That's from the DWP's own research, published January 2026. No sick pay. No occupational health. No HR. No one to pick up the slack.

Just them. Holding all of it. Alone.

And here's what that does over time: when there's no structure around you, no processes that run without you, no community catching you when things wobble, it's very easy to start believing the chaos is you.

That you're not cut out for this. That everyone else has it more together.
They don't. The system just wasn't built for you.

But here's what we know from working with thousands of freelancers across the UK: when you get the right foundations in place - sorted processes, reliable support, and people around you who genuinely get it, everything changes.

Not just how your business runs. How you show up. The rates you charge. The clients you go after. The opportunities you stop talking yourself out of.

Because brilliant people deserve better than burning out quietly.

Thinking about leaving corporate life?

Sometimes the signs are subtle.

The Sunday scaries turn into Monday morning dread.

- You find yourself researching business ideas between meetings.
- LinkedIn starts feeling less like networking and more like escape planning.
- That side project starts to feel like the thing you actually care about.

But making the leap does not have to mean figuring it all out alone.

Online and in our spaces, you can spend time around people who have already made the move, ask questions, test your thinking and start shaping a proper plan.

Through our community, programmes, workshops and events, we help people explore what comes next with more confidence, more clarity and less guesswork.

Book a free day pass, meet the community, and see what life beyond corporate could look like. Get started today by joining our online community at https://zurl.co/LxAwh

Meta ads are not just about pushing buttons.

And they’re definitely not just about boosting the odd post and hoping for the best.

The businesses that get better results from paid social usually have one thing in common: they understand the creative.

- The message.
- The offer.
- The visual.
- The hook.
- The reason someone should actually stop scrolling.

In this session, we’ll look at how to approach Meta ads in a more creative, practical and strategic way, so you’re not just spending money — you’re learning how to make your ads work harder.

The Creative Way to Run Meta Ads in 2026

May had plenty going on across TownSq 🌟

📍 Hereford – Shell Store welcomed artist Anita Marles for an exhibition inspired by the Canary Girls, alongside a history talk exploring the building’s fascinating wartime past. We also wrapped up another successful Start Up Club.

📍 Kingston – More new members joined the community, making the most of riverside workspace, fresh connections and great views.

📍 Bognor Regis – The Track hosted Light Up, bringing together the creative and digital community for an evening of networking, art, music and inspiring conversations. Members and families also enjoyed rounders and pizza in the park.

📍 Bicester – Perch became a film studio for a few days as George James Ltd. created new training content. We also welcomed some very special visitors – Billy and Poppy 🐾

📍 Devon – The Node team joined a charity golf day organised by member Accord, helping raise over £1,000 for North Devon Hospice.

📍 Tunbridge Wells – Town Hall welcomed local businesses and organisations for another fantastic networking event with 7oaks Chamber.

The internet will give you 47 frameworks for your pricing strategy before lunch.
Threads, takes, theories, templates. Everyone's got a system. Everyone's got the answer.

And honestly? A lot of it is good. But at some point, reading more of it stops helping and starts getting in the way.

What actually moves things forward, in our experience, is saying it out loud to another human being who gets it.

Not posting about it. Not consuming another thread. Just sitting across from someone, talking it through, and seeing what comes back.

We've been doing a lot of work on entrepreneurial ecosystems over the past few years - the people, places and relationships that actually determine whether a business thrives. And one thing keeps coming up: the most connected entrepreneurs aren't the ones with the best content strategy. They're the ones who show up. Who are in the room. Who have people around them they can think out loud with.

That kind of connection doesn't happen in a feed. It happens in a place.

If you're at that point right now, head full, tabs open, not sure what to do next - come and find us.

We've got networking events and coworking spaces across the UK. And if you want to go deeper on the ecosystem idea, we've just published a paper on exactly that.

Nearly half of TownSq member businesses have grown their teams.

That’s one of the key findings from our latest Impact Report, and it marks a big shift, from working solo to building something bigger.

Hiring is a step change. It requires confidence, clarity, and the right support around you.

In the right environment, that transition becomes more achievable, and more sustainable.

From founder to employer, that’s real progress.
