HALL HIRE.
Our Church Hall is available for hire for meetings, activity groups, birthday parties etc. The hall is approximately 120 square metres in size and has a kitchen adjacent with a serving hatch into the hall. The maximum capacity (seated) is 70 people. Chairs and tables are also provided. Car parking for a limited number of vehicles is available.
We do have a few restrictions:
- we cannot permit bouncy castles on our premises
- we do not allow alcohol on our premises
- we expect the hall to be vacated by 10-15 p.m. at the latest, after evening usage.
Users have to complete a written agreement before using the hall, and one important feature of this is that the User must either agree to abide by Dore Methodist Church Safeguarding Policy or prove to our satisfaction that they have a similar policy in place before signing the agreement. Regular users must also carry their own Public Liability Insurance - "one-off users" are covered by our own Insurance Policy.
From 1st September 2024 the charge for a 4 hour session is £65. Shorter periods are charged at £17-50 per hour. (This rate includes the use of the kitchen for refreshments). Without the use of the kitchen the charge is £53 for a 4 hours session or £14-50 per hour.
Currently the hall is available as follows:
Mondays - None.
Tuesdays - First, Third, and Fifth mornings up to 12-00 noon.
Wednesdays - Most afternoons after 2-00 p.m. Some evenings.
Thursdays - Most afternoons and evenings after 3-30 p.m.

It is also possible to hire the church (worship area) for concerts or meetings, with or without the use of the hall.
