Insurance

It is with regret that we have to ask all hirers, including regular users, to take out public liability insurance. In order to book for a private function, you need to provide proof of insurance to the bookings secretary. You can obtain insurance cover (approximately £30 as of April 2019) from Party-Insurance (www.party-insurance.co.uk)
