Welcome to Berkshire Jelly
Are you based in East Berkshire ? Would you like the the chance to get out of the (home)office and work alongside other like-minded business people for a day a month?
Crowthorne Enterprise Centre have very kindly agreed to host Berkshire Jelly in their fabulous conference room with Tea, Coffee (payment via an honesty box). There is plenty of space for 14 people with laptops, free wifi, free parking.
What is Jelly?
Jelly is a casual monthly co-working event, where homeworkers, freelancers, small business owners, and office based people who want a change of working scene once in a while can get together with their laptops once a month to have a change from their usual workplace, meet some new people and work together in a social environment .
Jelly is mainly about work with a bit of chat, sharing ideas, helping others with business issues, passing on tips and maybe even collaborating on a new project. Don't worry there's also plenty of time for tea and coffee and if you're lucky maybe even some cake eating too!
Jelly is NOT networking- it isn't about trying to find new clients, pitching your business or trying to sell. Anyone doing this will not be popular and anyway if that is what you're looking for there are plenty of excellent networking groups in Berkshire.
Jelly was started in the States and is now increasingly popular in the UK with over 30 active co-working groups already and more starting up every month
So if you have ever felt isolated in your home office/ work office and want to meet some other like-minded people in a different work environment, then come along to a Jelly and give it a try!
What does it cost to attend?
Its FREE to come along, all you need do is bring some pennies to buy yourself tea/coffee. You are welcome to bring your own lunch or buy a freshly made sandwich from the local Pinewood Cafe

Do I have to stay all day?
People can turn up at any point from the starting point, introduce themselves to the organiser, plug in their laptop and access the wi fi with no obligation to be there from start to finish so you can fit Jelly in around other commitments like the school run. . Obviously- the longer you're there the more vibrant and interactive the day will be.
