Dear all

As many of you will be aware Wikimedia UK has been looking for new office space as our current building, Development House, has been sold by our landlords and is being redeveloped. After an extensive process led by Davina Johnson, our Director of Finance and Operations, and supported by Nicola Furness, our Fundraising, Membership and Operations Assistant, the team will be moving next Wednesday 23rd August.

Our new offices are in Southwark, just behind Tate Modern and about a 10 - 15 minute walk from both Waterloo and London Bridge stations, and a five minute walk from Southwark. Our new address is:

Wikimedia UK
Europoint
Office 1, Ground floor
5-11 Lavington Street 
London SE1 0NZ

We will circulate new telephone numbers as soon as these are set up, but please note the last date the current address and phone numbers will work on is Tuesday 22nd August. Of course our email addresses will remain the same however it would be fair to expect a bit of disruption to emails and possible delays in replies, particularly over the next week as we pack the current office down and set up the new space. 

Once the dust has settled we will have a little 'open office' event with drinks and nibbles where volunteers, members and partners can come and visit us in our new offices. We will circulate a date for this as soon as possible but it's likely to be in the early autumn. 

If you have any questions about this please get in touch. 

Thanks and best wishes
Lucy
