10. Do you allow charity events?
As a company we support 3 charities and like to think we do our bit. Obviously we need to run the venue as a businesses, but if the space is quite or out of season, then we do like to try and support local charities and events. Sadly we can only decide approximately 4 weeks before your event if we can offer you the space for free or at a reduction. If you would like to book the space for a fund raiser, perhaps we can help with a donation from the food and beverage sales. Either way, send us a message and lets see what we can do together.
