Why do we hire rooms?

We hire rooms to other organisations for a number of reasons. Firstly, we recognise the need for places where people can meet to share ideas, learn and give support. The Church offers a peaceful, meeting place in Ballynahinch for many groups. Some might otherwise find it difficult to meet in reasonable surroundings. Secondly, through hiring rooms we offer everyone who comes to use our building the opportunity to find out about the church, it’s beliefs and work. And finally, hiring rooms raises income, which helps to pay the running costs of the Church. However, we keep our rates low and do not make a profit from hirings.
 

Who can hire rooms?

We are willing to hire rooms to a wide range of organisations, including public sector groups, charities, individuals and some for-profit activities. However, we reserve the right to refuse a booking if the hirer’s activities and aims are in conflict with our Christian values. When a group or individual makes a hiring enquiry, they are therefore required to give information regarding their activities. Applicants will also be assessed on whether the premises will be used in a responsible manner.
Permission may be refused in certain cases and the decision of the church leadership team is final. 

 

How long is a session?

A session is based upon morning (0900 – 1300), afternoon (1400 – 1700) and evening (1800 – 2200)
