What members get, free
A business address
17a Electric Lane, Brixton Village, London SW9 8LA on your website, invoices, email signature and socials, in place of your home.
The directory
Every member is a verified business. Your profile says what you do, what you need and what you can offer, and other members can find you.
Events
Invitations to member events at Impact Brixton.
The building
Occasional free space in Brixton Village when it’s available, plus 20% off meeting rooms and day passes.
What Business Home is not
It isn’t a registered office, so it can’t go on Companies House or HMRC. It doesn’t receive post, so it can’t be an address where legal documents are served. It can’t be used for Google Business Profile, Amazon or a bank. Those are jobs for our paid plans — and the platform or bank always makes its own decision. You can add a paid plan whenever you need one.
Every member is a real person with a real business
Business centres used to have a front desk that knew everyone in the building. We still do. Every application includes an ID check and is reviewed by a person at Impact Brixton. That is what keeps the address worth having.

Common questions
Is it really free?
Yes. No card and no trial. You pay only if you add a paid plan or book a room or day pass.
Why do you need my ID?
Because we’re required to know who uses our address, and because it keeps the membership real. Every member has been through the same check.
Who gets declined?
People with no business and no plan to start one, anything we wouldn’t host in our building, and applications where the ID check fails.
Can I use the address to register my company?
Not on the free membership. That's Virtual Office Standard, £150 a year inc VAT, and members can add it at any time.
I’m a sole trader. Can I put the address on my invoices?
You can show our address on your invoices as your business location. But if you trade under a business name, UK rules also require your invoices and letters to show your own name and a UK address where legal documents can be served. Business Home doesn't receive post, so it can't be that address. Virtual Office Standard (£150 a year inc VAT) can — post is opened, scanned and emailed the same day.
What happens to post sent to me?
Business Home doesn’t include post. If you need post handled, that’s what the paid plans are for.
I haven’t registered a company yet.
That’s who this is for. Apply with your name and what you’re building.
I’m not in London.
Join anyway. The address and directory work wherever you are.
