Elsie Whiteley Innovation Centre has started 2018 on a high note with new business arrivals taking occupancy rates close to full capacity.

The not-for-profit business centre is run by Halifax Opportunities Trust and is home to a thriving community of small businesses. Rental income from office space and meeting rooms funds some of the other work carried out by the Trust.

Recent arrivals to the centre include digital engineering company, BiM Dept ltd and project management specialists PL Projects. Our CEO, Alison Haskins, had this to say about the recent new arrivals: “We’re delighted that the Centre is continuing to attract such a diverse range of businesses and that we can that we can provide them with a sound base which enables them to grow.

This meets one of our charitable aims which is to help businesses grow. If we can also play our part in attracting businesses into the Calderdale area from further afield and creating new jobs locally then that’s an added bonus.”
