A new voucher scheme to provide free access to hot-desk working in hub facilities across the country has gone live, the Minister for Rural and Community Development, Heather Humphreys, has announced.
At least 10,000 hot desk working days will be provided free of charge over the course of the scheme, which is aimed at existing hub users as well as those accessing hub facilities for the first time.
The scheme will run over two phases. Phase one will run until August 31st, with the second phase starting in September and expected to run into early 2023.
During the first phase, three vouchers will be credited to the accounts of all registered ConnectedHubs.ie users, with each voucher redeemable for a day’s hot-desk working in participating hubs.

Anybody wishing to register for their free vouchers can do so on the website or on the mobile app.
Ms Humphreys said the voucher scheme would “give people an opportunity to try out our many remote working hubs across the country for free”.
“This voucher scheme will help more people to realise the benefits of remote working and will provide an opportunity to ‘try before you buy’. Whether you are fitting in some work while on holiday in Ireland or looking to relocate to rural Ireland, Connected Hubs has an option for you,” she said.
“The fact is there are now more people living and working in rural Ireland than ever before,” the Minister said, adding that the scheme would be “a better option” for those working at home from the kitchen table or facing a long commute.
“They may also decide that the hubs in our wonderful regional towns and villages would make the option of relocating, or moving home, a viable one.”
