Please make sure you are familiar with your equipment. We don’t have technical support on site – if you need to come in early to test equipment please let us know.
Any electrical equipment being brought into the building for use in a meeting, function or event must be PAT tested by a qualified electrician. We may ask to see a PAT certificate.
The responsibility for this remains with the hirer. All electrical equipment being brought into the building must be identified at the reception at the time of the booking.
Public Address System
If a PA is required for DJs, iPod or CDs one is available to hire for £70
For live music where a full PA is required, one is available with our Sound Technician provided. For reasons of safety and security, this system may only be operated by our Sound Technician. Hire charge £200.
If you are considering booking live music, bands must be acoustic or similar in order for us to comply with environmental noise requirements. Choice of band and technical requirements will need to be approved before booking is confirmed. This is best done by providing links to live recordings. Please ask if clarification is needed. You will need to discuss this with Richard Whitehead our music coordinator.
