About Us
Our Mission
The Netherfield Partnership exists to support the economic well-being of Netherfield and the surrounding area by providing an affordable, well-managed workspace for local start-up and small businesses.
​
The Farthing Enterprise Centre is the Partnership’s main activity and provides a practical, supportive environment in which businesses can establish themselves and operate sustainably.
​
The Centre is overseen by a Management Committee drawn from the Partnership’s members, with day-to-day operations managed by a contracted Managing Agent
About Us
Our History
The Netherfield Partnership Ltd is a not for profit organisation registered under the Co-operative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014; the Farthing Enterprise Centre is the 'trading arm' of the Netherfield Partnership
​
It was formed in 1998/99 to act as a residual body following a European Social Fund programme which sought to regenerate parts of the Netherfield in Milton Keynes
​
The Partnership does not employ any staff and the work of the Management Committee is done either voluntarily, or as part of the employment of the representative of a member organisation.
