Booking at St Michaels
St Michael's Church offers a number of 'spaces' which are used for the many internal activities and meetings on Sundays and during the week: The Church itself can accomodate 250 and is ideal for conferences, concerts or large gatherings. We have two smaller rooms which can hold small groups of up to 15 people and space in the Vestry to use as an office. For further details or to book, please contact the church warden gavin.adlington@gmail.com When not being used for Church activities, we are keen for others to use our facilities for meetings and events for an appropriate donation. We have prepared a scale of suggested 'charges' to form a basis for agreeing a suitable donation. There are deductions applied for charitable organizations and church members.

The Church Council (PCC) reserves the right to refuse a booking under certain circumstances, i.e. if inconsistent with a place of Worship. All bookings are subject to availability and will defer to a prior booking. In extreme circumstances, the PCC reserves the right to cancel a booking where the church building is required for a Church Activity e.g. Wedding or Funeral. A full refund will be offered and as much notice as is practicable will be given, but the PCC accepts no liability for any losses resulting from the cancellation. The church is normally fitted with chairs in rows facing the stage and altar for church services. If it is required to move chairs or other furniture around an additional charge of £24 will be made to prepare the building for the altered arrangements and to return the chairs to their normal position thereafter. All bookings should incorporate adequate time for setting up before and clearing up after the event. A cleaning charge may be applied if additional cleaning is required.
