What are Military Coworking Network hubs? The coworking hubs are fully equipped office spaces on bases throughout the UK and Europe. They provide the facilities that you would expect in any office: a quiet workspace (that isn’t the kitchen table), fast Wi-Fi, printers and good coffee! But more importantly, they can give you access to local, professional networking opportunities for your career or business, information about employers in the local area, higher-education opportunities and the chance to meet new people and make friends. Social isolation can have a huge impact on mental wellbeing, and the hubs are more than just a space to work from: they offer a professional support network of like-minded people, and a supportive and encouraging environment in which to work, develop THE MILITARY COWORKING NETWORK T h e M i l i t a r y C o w o r k i n g N e t w o r k ( MC N ) i s a c ommu n i t y o f m i l i t a r y s p o u s e s w o r k i n g t o g e t h e r t o c r e a t e a n e t w o r k o f c o w o r k i n g o f f i c e s p a c e s o n m i l i t a r y b a s e s . The coworking hubs are supported by an online community for spouses everywhere to share advice, information and inspiration and create a network of contacts. Having a dedicated space where spouses can go to work and study together not only reduces social isolation, their offline and online communities offer help and support to enable you to maintain flexible jobs which work around your military lifestyle.
