Hello there!                
                   

Cleanliness

After a booking, please leave the centre as clean and tidy as you would wish to find it. Please mop up any spillages immediately and sweep up any debris and wipe dirty tables before storing. Please take away all rubbish and recyclable items. Please bring your own sacks. Chairs should be stacked correctly and safely, in the cupboard. We reserve the right to deduct the cost of cleaning up after untidy users from their deposit.

Children

Children must be under close supervision at all times.

Heating

The gas-fired central heating is thermostatically controlled. Please do not alter or tamper with the controls, boiler or radiators and do not use any additional heating appliances. If you have any problems, contact the bookings secretary or any other member of the NEACA Executive Committee.

Fire Precautions

You are responsible for fire safety. Please familiarise yourself the positions of emergency exits and fire extinguishers. In the event of a fire, the first priority is to evacuate the building and call the fire brigade (there is a phone box at the entrance to the shopping centre car park). Please take every precaution to prevent fire and do not obstruct the emergency exits or lock the wrought iron gate at the entrance during your function.

Noise and Nuisance

Please remember that you are in the middle of a residential area and take care not to create any unnecessary noise or cause disturbance to our neighbours, particularly when leaving in the late evening. Please keep all rear doors closed for the duration of your function.

The centre is licensed for public entertainment and bar facilities and as such no alcohol is permitted on the premises other than that purchased from the arranged bar.

Starting and Finishing

Your are allowed 30 minutes set up and 30 minutes cleaning, before and after your booking. Please quote the net times in your booking. Please ensure that the building is vacated promptly at the end of the period booked, that the lights etc are turned off and that all the windows are closed. The hirer is the responsible for ensuring that the centre is securely locked and the keys returned immediately as per the arrangements made with the bookings secretary.

Cancellations

An administration fee of £10.00 will be charged for any booking cancelled up to two weeks before the event. Cancellations after that date will be charged in full.

Damages and Theft

The North East Abingdon Community Association reserves the right to make charges against the hirer for damage, theft and breakages resulting from the use of the Community Centre.

Access to the premises

Hirers using external caterers, discos or services delivered to the premises are reminded that they must offload any deliveries in the public car park.
