Why Acton for Creative Businesses?

For small businesses wishing to grow, the Doughnut Factory is in an ideal location. West London has the largest presence of creative and media businesses in the UK outside of the West End, and The Doughnut Factory is centrally located within the region. Acton Vale is also part of the crucial ‘Western Wedge’, running from Hoxton, Bankside and Soho through Hammersmith, Ealing and onto Pinewoood, Shepperton and beyond.

Located at the borders of Hammersmith (BBC, Endemol, Disney, AOL, Time-Warner, UPI etc), Ealing (Ealing Studios) and Chiswick (Discovery, CBS), it is an area full of opportunities for freelancers and independent production companies. Local industry facilities include Film Studio space and prop provision in Park Royal and Acton, rehearsal space at The Questors Theatre etc, a wide range of small music studios and gallery/exhibition space in Ealing & Park Royal.

West London is increasingly an alternative to central London for specialist media training, with local educational institutions such as University of West London and Ealing, Hammersmith & West London College forming links with the business community.

The Doughnut Factory is situated at the heart of an existing cluster of diverse creative and media companies in the Acton Vale area, ranging from TV studios and production companies to graphic design studios and music production.

The Doughnut Factory has the advantage of a wide range of local public transport access – 2 tube lines, London Overground, a range of local bus routes and easy links to both the City & Heathrow (which will be accentuated by the advent of Crossrail). We are also well located for the A40 and M4 corridors.

As part of the C4C Big Lottery Funded project a 'hub' for social enterprises in West london is being developed at the Doughnut Factory. Weekly rental desks and daily 'hot desks' can be hired at competitive rates. We can also provide a meeting/training room for up to 16 people . In addition Action Acton will provide FREE advice on social enterprise start up and introductions to relevant organisations and projects .
