About Us

Meanwhile Space CIC supports individuals and organisations to bring buildings and land that has become temporarily redundant into constructive use.

The reasons why space has become redundant vary. It may no longer fulfil its intended purpose, there might be a change in the local economy, or it could be part of a wider plan to assemble a larger development project.

The impacts of redundant space are consistent. Blight and disruption to local communities, and critically Meanwhile Space believes, lost opportunities...

Meanwhile Space works with landlords, landowners, developers and local authorities to relieve them temporarily of liabilities (insurance, rates, security etc.) associated with holding redundant shops, offices, cleared land whilst an appropriate commercial solution is being sought.

By working with local communities and other stakeholders, interim or 'Meanwhile,' uses are deployed to reanimate the space and provide opportunities for community benefit and social enterprise. Meanwhile Space works with owners of the redundant buildings or land, and the community and enterprising organisations that can create a positive and temporary use.

With rapid response and realising creative ideas, empty property can become reanimated, providing outlets for community enterprise and activity, whilst complementing the efforts of surviving businesses.
