Long term office hire 

We currently do not have any office spaces available for long term hire at our city centre hub, The Station. A big part of what we do at Creative Youth Network is rent out space to other organisations – many of which also work with young people. This model brings in valuable funds to support some of the most marginalised young people in the city.

We’re excited to find a great organisation to join the ranks of Brook Sexual Health Clinic, Bristol Cable, Young Bristol, Ujima Radio, Boomsatsuma and NAOS on our buzzing site.
