"Our move to modern and purpose- built offices represents our response to Eden Futures’ ongoing growth and a commitment and investment to our people, who are our priority.”

Developed by Harlaxton Estates, the newly built, open plan offices are in a rural area offering a high-quality working environment with good facilities, nearby amenities and excellent transport links. It has hot-desk space for visiting staff and conference meeting rooms.
