Talent for a Tenner – 22nd April 2010
Scotland’s First Jelly to set at Freelance World.
Jelly started in New York in 1996 and reached the UK in 2009. The purpose of a Jelly is to enable freelancers and small business owners who work from home to escape the isolation of working alone and benefit from the company of like-minded people. While working they can exchange ideas and advice, chat and even collaborate. There is currently just one other Jelly in Scotland, held in Edinburgh.
According to Michelle Barclay, Business Supporter and Aberdeen Jelly organiser, “We will provide good coffee and the office basics such as a printer, desk, and a plug for your mobile to charge and for one day we’ll fill it with fellow freelance and self employed workers. If you are getting cabin fever working from home, or you miss the warm embrace of office banter then this is for you.”
As part of their office refurbishment which involved bright colours and open spaces, the team at Freelance World decided to move all their staff upstairs and turn the ground floor into a permanent co-working area which will be opening later in April. The space doubles as an art gallery for 4th year Graphic Design students from RGU, giving visitors the opportunity to view and buy their work.
