Meet James Wright: How co-working at The Robinson transformed his workweek

When James Wright, a senior software engineer at Prolific, decided to shake up his remote work routine, he found the perfect solution at Blackpool’s newest modern business hub: The Robinson. With 14 years in software engineering under his belt, James has seen offices and co-working spaces across the UK, but nothing quite like this.

Why The Robinson?

“I moved back to the Fylde Coast a few years ago and, while I love working from home, I wanted a local space where I could meet other professionals,” James shares. Having previously tried co-working in Preston and Manchester, he was drawn to The Robinson’s combination of location, energy, and modern facilities right in Blackpool town centre.

A day transformed

James admits that remote work has its perks, but too many hours in a home office can feel monotonous. “Heading into town once a week breaks up the routine. It’s motivating, energising, and I get to enjoy all the facilities the town centre has to offer.”

The Robinson difference

So, what keeps James coming back? “It’s bright, clean, and modern; everything about it feels motivating,” he says. The Robinson’s co-working spaces offer hot desks and dedicated desks in a vibrant open-plan environment, designed to foster collaboration and focus. Plus, the central location means you’re never far from shops, cafes, or even a quick seafront walk.

Who should join?

James recommends co-working at The Robinson to anyone feeling boxed in at home. “Remote employees, freelancers, or start-ups wanting to connect with local clients and businesses, this is the place to be,” he explains.

Try it for yourself

“Give it a try!”, says James.  A day or half-day guest pass lets you experience co-working at The Robinson, and you might even meet your next client or future colleague.”

From flexible co-working memberships to fully equipped offices and meeting rooms, The Robinson offers something to everyone, including ultra-fast fibre broadband, sustainable design, and a supportive community vibe.

Transform your routine, connect with like-minded professionals, and discover this modern workspace. Get in touch with the team or explore memberships at The Robinson and see how co-working can work for you.
