The Team

Welcome! As of 21^st September 2020, our building can be safely used for room hire once again, and we are looking forward to greeting you in socially-distanced ways that we’re all now accustomed to!

We have worked hard to ensure our building is COVID SECURE. For it to remain so, we have introduced a number of measures for users of the building to adhere to inline with the available guidance from The Baptist Union of Great Britain, and HM Government.

Please note, initially we will only offer one letting per room per 24-hour period to allow for cleaning.

We have updated our Terms and Conditions of Hire which can be found by clicking on the link below.

We strongly advise as a potential user that you read the update carefully. In brief, the main changes are as follows: -

• The Hiring Organisational Leader must undertake their own risk assessment for managing risks arising from their own activities when they have control of the premises to include COVID Security. We will need to receive a copy of this document by email BEFORE we can confirm a booking.

• We have assessed room capacities, and require all users to keep a 2-metre distance from each other and our staff. The updated room capacities can be found below. These are MAXIMUM capacities, and hirers will need to confirm in their risk assessment the number of attendees, taking into account the current HM Government Guidelines on Social Bubbles and Numbers of Households allowed to meet indoors.

• All attendees will be required to wear a Face Covering at all times within the building.

• All attendees will be required to sanitise their hands and check-in via the Inkpass.app to conform with NHS Track & Trace requirements. (Scan the QR Code and Register your details, or check-in online)

• No communal serving of food and drink items. Individuals may bring their own food or drink with them, and any food or drink provided for attendees must be individually wrapped and distributed without compromising social distancing.

OUR ROOMS: -

We continue to offer the Basement (The Friendship Centre & The Community Hub) and The Sanctuary (large hall with gallery), and will work with you to explore ways of using these spaces to meet your hiring needs in a COVID-19-safe way. Please note, initially we will only offer one letting per room per 24-hour period to allow for cleaning. We hope you will consider staying on board with us by making use of one of our available rooms.

All our rooms are wheelchair accessible including toilet facilities.

Room hires are subject to our terms and conditions which can be found by clicking on the link below.
