Where Hastings Commons has addresses
Who Hastings Commons suits
Hastings Commons is a workspace operator, so the address comes attached to a real building with meeting rooms and desks. You pay for that whether you use it or not. It suits people who will occasionally want somewhere to sit or to meet a client, and is poor value if you only need the address.
There is a single address, so this only works if that location suits you.
What we noticed
Community-owned regeneration organisation in Hastings Old Town/White Rock (Rock House, Observer Building and other buildings). Virtual office gives use of the address for business purposes with secure mail storage and collection from The Observer Building; forwarding costs extra (price not published). The page does not say whether the address can be the Companies House registered office, only that company registration details are required. Application by email (space@hastingscommons.com) rather than online checkout. Exact postal address and postcode for virtual office clients not published on the page (organisation contact address is Rock House, 49-51 Cambridge Road, Hastings TN34 1DT).

From £25 a monthHastings Commons: common questions
How much does Hastings Commons cost?
Its cheapest published plan works out at about £30 a month. Check whether post forwarding and a director's service address are included, because on most plans in this market they are extra.
Can I use Hastings Commons as my registered office?
Only on a plan that explicitly includes registered office use. Several providers sell a business address that is not valid at Companies House, so check the plan table above rather than assuming.
What ID do I need to sign up?
Photo identification and a proof of address dated within the last three months. Every UK provider of registered office services must run these checks before acting for you.
