Single Bookings

The Charity exists to provide a centre for community and social activities and is focused on making the Village Hall attractive and welcoming.

However the Charity’s trustees have a duty to protect the Village Hall and its facilities from damage so that it remains able to support the maximum number of activities for the community.  Unfortunately, based on past occurrence of  serious damage, the following types of bookings are not accepted:

  • parties for children over the age of 11
  • parties for ages 16 to 21 inclusive
