The company

At Fora, we’re fueled by a desire to enhance the way people work. We’re here for the progressives, the forward thinkers, the status quo-challengers, the creators and the innovators. With signature hospitality, a likeminded community of members and a re‑energising wellness experience, Fora takes the grind out of daily work‑life, so members can focus on what’s important – working productively, healthily and happily.

Our journey began over 20 years ago, when we opened our first location on London’s City Road. Since then, our collection has grown to over 60 distinctive workspaces across London, the UK and Germany, totaling 3.2 million sq ft of real estate. Over the last two decades we have welcomed approximately 300,000 members through our doors, with over 30,000 members today, and boast market‑leading retention rates.
