A Little More About Us
Freshspace is run in partnership by Darren and Eilidh, combining their extensive business knowledge and creativity to deliver bespoke web services to meet your individual needs.

Eilidh & Darren Nicholls
Wanting to do things a little differently, we established Freshspace in 2015 offering web design, digital marketing and business development services. We work closely with a range of organisations from family businesses to charities to multi-nationals. It is our passion to understand our client's unique requirements and deliver a more personal, flexible web service.
Overall we pride ourselves in delivering a high standard of service with a creative edge. We understand the importance of a website which fits with your unique goals and requirements - one size does not fit all at Freshspace.
We love getting to know our clients and with such a varied bunch we've developed a wealth of knowledge on all kinds of topics! We'd love it if you joined the club.
In addition...
Keeping a fresh approach, we have recently enlisted the help and support of Fiona, an associate member of the Freshspace Team. Fiona has not only enhanced Freshspace and the services we offer with her expertise and enthusiasm, she also extends her brilliant services in social media and digital marketing to our clients.
"The youngest member of the team, I've been freelancing with Freshspace since September 2018. With qualifications in "Creative Media Production" from Carlisle College and a degree in "Working with Children and Families" from the University of Cumbria, I aim to combine my creativity with a love of children to create fun and individual social media pages."
