The Hive is a co-working space and enterprise hub which is now open on the upper mall of Spindles, co-run by social enterprise Upturn and Oldham Council.

If you are a business in Oldham, whether you are starting up or need help to grow, The Hive is where you will find the critical support to thrive. To encourage and support local entrepreneurs, Oldham Council’s dedicated business investment team is now based within the workspace, to help local entrepreneurs in a wide range of ways – whether it's advice on getting your business idea off the ground, business growth assistance, or support with accessing funding and grants.

For existing organisations or small teams, there are also a limited number of private offices available to rent and a range of meeting and conference rooms to book.
