The following is the current room booking policy:
Audlem Methodist Church is pleased to share its facilities with the Audlem community and is therefore ready to receive booking enquiries from appropriate groups and organisations. (Meetings and activities must be compatible with church purposes. Bookings of a party political nature will not be considered. No alcohol is allowed on the premises.)
We recognise that other community facilities are available in the village and we have no wish to undermine these. Our recommended levels of donations (in lieu of rent) will therefore be at least equivalent to what is charged elsewhere.
As we have no caretaker or cleaner we are only able to accept bookings on a limited scale and will only consider those that will make 'light' demands on premises, furniture and fittings. (ie no sports, games, dancing, children's parties, etc.)
We expect those using the premises to clean them after use. Instructions, equipment and materials are provided.
As we have no storage facilities available for those who book the premises, anything brought onto the premises should be removed immediately after the booking.
A 'no smoking' policy operates in all rooms.
With the exception of one-off bookings, groups are required to provide their own public liability insurance, and evidence of this will need to be presented. (Our insurers, Methodist Insurance, 0161 833 9696, may be able to help, if required.)
Enquires about room use should be made to Mrs Christina Lawson, rooms@audlemmethodistchurch.org.uk.
