Hiring the Church Halls
The Parochial Church Councils of Christ Church and S Philip’s make their church halls available to individuals and organisations for meetings and events. There are conditions attached. This page details the hire charges. Note that when you calculate the hire charge, the length of your booking must be from the time you arrive to the time you leave: setting-up and clearing-up must be included.The availability listed here indicates when the halls are available for hire. Certain slots may already be taken by regular hirers, although there may be gaps in their meeting schedule which of course others can fill.
S Philip’s Hall; Christ Church main hall
The charges are the same for Christ Church main hall and S Philip’s Hall. Christ Church main hall is only available on Friday evenings, Saturdays and Sunday afternoons; we cannot accept bookings for other times. S Philip’s Hall is available throughout the week with the exception of Sunday afternoons. Both halls have a maximum capacity of 100, although this limit may need to be lowered if seating or tables are laid out in the hall. Both halls are accessible (Christ Church has an external threshold for which wheelchair users may require assistance) and there is a toilet suitable for wheelchair users.| Per hour: | £12 | |||
| Kitchen: | £ 6 | per session |
Christ Church upper halls
Christ Church upper halls are available throughout the week with the exception of Sunday mornings. Each upper hall has a maximum capacity of 50, although again this limit will need to be lowered if everyone is seated. These halls are not suitable for use by persons with difficulties in mobility.| Per hour: | £ 8 |
The south hall (left-hand staircase) has a sink available.
Christ Church: Brodie Hall
The Brodie Hall at Christ Church is available on weekday afternoons and evenings (except Thursday evening) and on Saturdays and some Sunday afternoons. This hall has a maximum capacity of 50, although again this limit will need to be lowered if everyone is seated. Because of its age and listed building status this hall may not be suitable for use by wheelchair users, although there are no steps and people with limited mobility should find little difficulty. There are currently no toilet facilities for wheelchair users in this hall, although improvements are planned.| Per hour: | £10 | |||
| Kitchen: | £ 5 | per session |
Regular bookings
We are very happy to consider regular bookings in all the halls for times when they are available, and are able to give discounts on these rates. Please ask for details: see below. You will still need to fill in a booking form and comply with our conditions. It may be necessary on occasion to make adjustments to regular bookings to cater for occasions when the parish needs to use the hall on a one-off basis. In these circumstances hirers are offered an alternative booking, if available, or any booking fee paid is refunded.Who to contact
