I heard about Spacemade Riley Studios on my way to my university library that I could still attend as an alumna to do my voluntary work for a neurodivergent recruitment agency. After having got fed up with the noise in parts of the library where phones were allowed (I volunteered in these areas to take part in webinars) and some students not adhering to eating rules, I decided to give Spacemade Riley Studios a try.

Here are the pros and cons of Spacemade Riley Studios so far:

Pros

* I was able to book a free trail for my first day.
* The studios are easy to get to by bus, Tube and Overground.
* The management team are overall friendly, attentive and helpful, although one of them has since left to manage an upcoming new Spacemade co-working space.
* The on-site kitchens have fridges where I can store any chilled food as long as I label it.
* Free tea and coffee are available.
* Chilled water for water bottles or drinking glasses can be dispensed from the kitchen taps.
* The breakout space on the ground floor is the most spacious.
* Dogs are welcome.
* Wi-fi with very good connection is available.
* Focus booths are available for phone calls or video calls.
* USB fans are provided in focus booths. These should come in handy in warmer weather.
* I mostly enjoyed working in individual booths.
* Focus Booth 9 on the second floor is a quieter place to work because it is isolated from other focus booths on this floor.
* Discounted day passes with memberships are available through Othership.
* Free sanitary products are available in the toilets.
* Several social events take place throughout the month.
* The management team were quick to respond to my e-mails about the pizza community lunch, which took place at the end of January 2024.

In-between

* Background music is played throughout the Studios, but I listen to my own music through headphones on my MacBook Pro and phone.
* The Dirty, Running and Clean signs on the dishwashers were confusing at first, but I worked out that I can put mugs I have used in the dishwasher when the Dirty sign is on.
* When I first came to the Studios, there didn’t seem to be a peppermint tea that I liked available, so I brought my own. On my more recent visits to the Studios, I saw that peppermint teas I liked were available.
* Reception staff are not always available to let me when I arrive or pop out for a bit. There were times when other members have let me in.
* The first community lunch I participated in was a pizza lunch. Although the management team fulfilled my request for gluten-free pizzas, I only managed to have one slice of each, so I bought some salad from down the road for something more substantial.

Cons

* Can be expensive if used more regularly.
* The breakout spaces on floors above the ground floor are quite small.
* There were times when members spoke on the phone quite loudly, such as those in neighbouring booths, or took video calls outside of focus booths, or spoke to other members loudly in the main co-working space.
* At least two members were eating at their desks in the main co-working space, which I wasn’t sure about them doing. One exception was one member bringing a slice of pizza from the pizza community lunch to their desk.
* Responses to my e-mails to the management team were sometimes slow.

All in all, I have had an overall enjoyable experience with volunteering at Spacemade Riley Studios. I am especially impressed with the kitchen facilities and proud of myself for finding coping mechanisms if the space got noisy at times. 4/5.
