Work from home? If you’re spending too much time working in your pants, talking to the cat, dog or fish, you need to get out of the house and join us for a day of coworking and coffee (finished by a cheeky craft beer). Come on! We’re all in the same boat. Most of us have forgotten how to talk to other people too. Hurry though. RSVP deadline is midnight tomorrow! Link in bio.

We're now called The WorkWell and we're kicking things off with pop-up coworking events at a cool space near you. If you work from home in and around Milton Keynes, Leighton Buzzard, Buckingham, Tring or Aylesbury, and you fancy getting out of the house, keep an eye out for our local meetups :)

Hello! Whilst our happy little coworking space has now closed, we're still lurking in the virtual depths of Facebook, right here on this page. From 2018, we'll be building this online community for people who work from home. Expect wit, friendly people, a flurry of useful articles* and the occasional plug of our brilliant shop at www.helmm.co

*Guest posts welcome. Please message us if you would like to contribute content.

Ever considered running your own coworking space?

FunkBunk is now closed – but you’re welcome to pick up the baton where we left off…

Fancy a change in your career? You may not have considered running a coworking space before but as two people who have run one for 10 years, we highly recommend it as a job. It’s low-stress and you get to meet interesting, like-minded people everyday – and you have the potential to earn an excellent salary too.

You must be a people-person, though – and you need to be committed to looking after the people at your workspace. You’ll also need to find a wifi-connected office (from someone who doesn’t mind you sub-letting) and some desks and chairs. Other than that, we can help you with the rest.

We’re selling the well-loved and memorable FunkBunk brand with a website that ranks top in Google for all of the relevant local search terms for towns and cities in Beds, Bucks and Herts, an integrated booking system, stunning signage and a full business strategy with details of what you should, and shouldn’t do, to make your coworking space a success (based on 10 years of running a very popular coworking space ourselves).

We also know a whole bunch of people who are now left with nowhere decent to work. Please help to re-home them - they're lovely.

If you’re interested (or know someone who could be), drop us a line at [email protected]

Yes, it's true. After many happy years, we have decided to close the coworking doors to FunkBunk forever from the 31st August, 2017. Thank you so much for all the love and support you've shown us over the past decade. You've been awesome!

Now come and take advantage of our lovely little workspace for the next 2 weeks and enjoy a super cup of coffee and boost of productivity while you're at it. We'd love to see you. We may even give you an emotional goodbye hug too. You've been warned.

Much love x

We’re officially one week into the summer holidays. How’s that working out for you?

Whether you’re a parent trying to work from home while the kids are around, or you’d simply rather be enjoying the summer in the garden instead of sat at a computer, we may have the answer…

For August only, we’re opening the doors at 7am, from Monday-Friday. Take advantage of the peace and quiet with an early start at FunkBunk, or enjoy an uninterrupted longer day of super-productivity so you can take time off to do what you love this summer.

We have changed our booking system so you can quickly book an early start day at a special rate just for August (you can also still book a standard day too).

If you're a regular at FunkBunk you may have seen a few of Helmm's standing desks about and maybe have even spent some time working at them. If you've not visited in a while, Sam has been working recently on a project called 'Helmm', designing, making and selling standing desks.

Standing and working burns extra calories, helps fight heart disease, stops you procrastinating, focusses your attention and can even strengthen your back.

Pop into FunkBunk to see these lovely pieces of furniture for yourself, or hop over to the Helmm page and give it a like. Sam would really appreciate it.
