1) Check hall availability by contacting the Booking Officer (contact details above)

2) Complete a booking form and email it to the Bookings Officer (contact details above)

Note that when we have colder weather you can supplement the heating in the Hall by feeding the meter with £1 coins, this will provide additional heating from the ceramic heaters on the hall walls.

3) Pay.

If you are given the option of including a Reference Number please include the date of the event and your organisation name. For example if the Young Farmer’s Club have are paying for an event on 12th October, the reference could be 12OCTYFC.

At this point you will have your booking confirmed, unless you require a TEN (see point 4)

4) Provide us with a copy of your Temporary Events Notice (TEN), if you need one.

If you event involves selling alcohol, either directly or indirectly, you will require a TEN, so be sure to allow yourself enough time to comply with licensing regulations. The hall is currently limited to 12 TENs every calendar year, the Committee needs to consider how best to spread these throughout the year, so each request needs approval from the Committee. Information on TENs and an application form is available here.
