How does a social membership for a coworking space work?!
We’re so glad you asked! A social membership is for people who want to be a part of the Kindred community, but who are unable to work from our space on a regular basis. Perhaps you're not in a traditional desk-bound profession, only need a coworking day every now and then, or you have a physical bricks and mortar store or business but still want the camaraderie of being part of our community. Through a social membership, you are still able to share and learn from other start ups, self employed individuals and the community here at Kindred.
Social Member Benefits
You can join Kindred as a social member and access many of the benefits our coworking members have - the most significant of which is the networks and connections that are naturally developed within Kindred. In smaller communities like Mangawhai, those relationships are so valuable in business. We aim to foster and support that in a way that feels natural and fun.
ONE COWORKING DAY PER MONTH INCLUDED
The social membership comes with one free casual coworking day per month included. Great if you want a break from the home office, or perhaps you can knock out all of your business admin in one day in our fun and inspiring environment.
SPECIAL members rateS
If you need more than one coworking day per month, you’ll be able to access our reduced member rates for both coworking and for bookings of our meeting room, The Shed.
members only SLACK group
This is a great way to stay connected to other businesses, freelancers and creatives in the area. You can ask questions, get help when you need it, share ideas and keep updated with our member only events and happenings at Kindred.
MONTHLY friday Drinks
Each month on a Friday evening we get together for member drinks either at Kindred or at one of our favourite local spots. Super casual, nothing formal - just an opportunity to catch up for a chat and a laugh.
“I have a physical business, so coworking isn’t something I needed. However, I absolutely wanted
to be part of everything going on at Kindred, so a
social membership was perfect for me.”
Monthly coffee and CROISSANTS
Each month, we have a members only morning tea of coffee and croissants to meet up, chat and brainstorm ideas and challenges we’re working on.
Our members encounter similar challenges and obstacles across diverse industries. These get-togethers enable us to throw some topics on the table and watch the magic happen as people's different backgrounds offer interesting and unexpected perspectives on an issue.
first option on special events
As well as free member-only events, we host special events throughout the year; workshops, trainings and event evenings. As numbers will often be limited, members will have first option on tickets before they are open to the public.
be a guest speaker or expert
We hold events and workshops throughout the year, and our members are always our first port of call to share their expertise and promote their services. This is a great opportunity to position yourself as the expert in your industry.
Use our mailing address
Many services (like email newsletters) require you to display a mailing or business address on content you send. Great if you have a physical location, not so great if you work from home. If needed, you are able to list our address as your business address to protect your privacy and add a layer of professionalism to your business.

Q&A
Do you have a one member per industry policy?
No, we don’t. We allow members from similar industries or businesses to join. We think this is a great opportunity to connect with someone who understands your wins and challenges or your particular industry.
How long are memberships valid for?
The virtual membership is valid for one year from the date you join us. You can either pay as one annual payment, or break this up over 12 monthly payments. Please note that memberships are unable to be cancelled or refunded before the year is up.
Can I cancel my membership?
No, we don’t offer refunds or early cancellations. But of course, you can choose whether you rejoin once your year is up.
I’m considering joining as a full member but am not quite ready yet. Can I be a social member in the interim?
Yes, if you sign up for an annual social membership and decide to become a full member at any time during that year, we will credit the value of your remaining social membership against the value of your new membership plan. The credit will be rounded to the nearest full month remaining.
