This space increases our monthly budget from around £5,000 to over £10,000 per month. At the moment, membership income is around £7,000/month, so we need to increase our membership income significantly in order to cope.
We have the benefit of nearly £40,000 in savings in the bank, and the first 4 months of our lease are rent-free.
