The Doris diary at Northlight Works on a Tuesday morning: desks taken, both offices in use and the parking spaces full

Priya’s weekDiary & Billing

The messages every morning.

Before: a whiteboard and the morning messages

Priya runs Northlight Works, a co-working space: thirty hot desks, six parking spaces and two offices. Every single morning the messages start. "Is my usual desk free?" "Someone's in my seat."

With me, members book a desk from their phones and I pick a free one, and a parking space the same way. Kit drops in and pays as he goes. Lola comes two days a week on a plan, and Sam is in every day, with a desk and a space included. The two offices are booked by the hour for meetings. At month end I send everyone one statement with a card pay link, and the money goes straight into Priya's own account.

What you get

What changes for a place like Priya’s.

Renting whole rooms rather than desks? Margaret and Dev show the other two ways.

On a trial

Everything, for up to 28 days. Co-working needs Diary, so there is no Free plan for desks.

On Diary

Members pick a desk or let me choose. Parking as its own group, so a desk and a space never clash. Offices by the hour. The floor map, on a tablet or a computer.

On Diary & Billing

Desk prices, a members price list, membership plans ("two days a week"), monthly statements with a pay link, and saved cards charged on the day. Money goes to your account; I take no cut.

Questions

Can a member have a desk and a parking space on the same day?

Yes. Parking is its own group, so a desk and a space never clash. On a full-time plan, both are included every day.

Do you take Direct Debit?

Not yet. Members pay by card: from the statement email, or automatically from a card they have saved.

Do statements show VAT?

Not yet. Doris has no VAT setting today, so a statement shows the amounts without a VAT line.
