The Hall has Reopened - and We're Hiring!

First of all, we're pleased to say that the Hall reopened on Wednesday 2nd December for new and existing classes, and that until the end of February 2021 we will be offering the Hall for hire at a discount of 50% to reflect the fact that COVID-19 regulations have meant that many hirers have seen a reduction in class sizes. Please note, however, that due to the regulations we are unable to accept bookings for private parties at the present time.

Secondly, we are looking to hire a Hall Premises Manager in January. See below for further details.
