(Reuters) – Workspace said on Thursday the utilisation of its centres by the end of September peaked at 56% of pre-COVID levels mid-week, as the London-focussed office space provider benefits from workers making a gradual return to its buildings.

The company said like-for-like occupancy was up 2.7% in the second quarter to 85.6%, and up 3.7% in the half year from a low of 81.9% at the end of March this year.
