HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESS!
Jess H is part of the THINQTANQ family, you might have seen her about tidying things up and talking loudly. (She's also the one that does the socials usually if you've got news for her to share email her at [email protected]).

She's getting a shout out today as she's fundraising for her annual terrifying activity. She'll be abseiling 13 stories down the side of hospital for the Hospital Charity so if you can spare a copper or two you'd make her birthday!

Just a note - we'll mention it in the office too. But there is a DESPICABLE show of hatred and violence planned in the city centre this evening. We are based just off Royal Parade so if you're in the building or working late then you might want to consider your route home as Plymouth City council and the city centre company are attempting to keep the area clear of good people while the racists have their moment.

We are disappointed that there is a planned demonstration in Plymouth tonight. This is not how Plymouth operates.

We have seen our fair share of tragedy over the past few years and throughout it all, we have shown that we stick together. Supporting each other.

The protest aims to divide communities by spreading distrust and hate.

Last night the Leader of the Council issued a statement re-iterating that anyone wanting to come to Plymouth to kick start any criminal, violent or antisocial behaviour is not welcome.

We are working hard to support local communities and together with the local police and other partners we have reached out to local community leaders to offer our help and reassurance. Our priority is that everyone is and feels safe.

We are also liaising with local businesses to make sure that they can make any necessary preparations in advance of the protests. We are deploying additional CCTV cameras to the area and offering our help to secure any properties e.g. scaffolding that are insecure.

However, to ensure your safety, you might want to consider staying away from the city centre from 4pm this evening.

We know that a number of businesses have made the decision to close tonight or close early. If you have any reservations or tickets for events, we encourage you to check with the venue to ensure they are still going ahead before leaving home.

We have made the decision to close Regent Street Car Park, if you are parked there already, you will be able to remove your car and Council officers are on hand to help.

City Bus and Stage Coach have also made the decision to reroute services away from Royal Parade from 3.30pm. Please look at their websites for further information.

As a reminder, in an emergency please call 999 or anything non urgent to report – please call 101.

Do you need one more reason to come and work with us? Well let it be this - the legend that is Rob and his personal mission to make this world a kinder, fairer, greener place to work.

We were having a little think about what makes THINQTANQ good for Plymouth and co-working spaces in general. We wrote a little blog about what economic gains co-working can bring to a town.
