The terms, stated plainly.
A summary of how the spaces are hired. The written agreement governs, and it will be provided before you are asked to commit to anything.
- In summary
- You hire a room, not a service
- You insure your own work
- You are responsible for what is shown
- We are responsible for the building
What we provide
The space, in the condition described, with the lighting, power and services set out in the agreement. The building's own compliance — fire safety, electrical testing, means of escape — is ours to maintain, and the documentation is available to you.
What you provide
Everything to do with the work itself: transport, installation, invigilation where the hire requires it, and removal at the end. Also insurance. Our cover is for the building and our own liabilities; it does not extend to the value of anyone else's work, and it would be unreasonable to expect it to.
Content
What is exhibited is the hirer's decision and the hirer's responsibility. We do not curate, approve or endorse it. That said, hire is subject to the law — anything unlawful, and anything that would put the building, its occupants or its licences at risk, is not permitted.
Damage and making good
The space is handed over in a defined condition and should come back in it. Reasonable fixings are expected and provided for; structural alterations are not. We will tell you before you book what may and may not be fixed to the walls.
Cancellation
Set out in the agreement, with the notice periods and any deposit stated. We would rather have a clear cancellation clause that both sides have read than a vague one that becomes an argument.
Before you sign
Read the agreement, and take your own advice if the commitment is significant to you. Nothing on this website is legal advice or a substitute for the written terms.
