Chamberlin Hall

For booking enquiries, complete the online form below. It is always a good idea to check the Chamberlin Hall event calendar to see if your proposed date of hire clashes with a regular event/booking. (Note: the rooms of the events held at the hall are listed within the event details, so if the side-room is booked, you can still hire the main hall and/or balcony room).

The quickest way to get a response is through the online booking form. To discuss specific details or for queries about an existing booking, please contact the booking secretary on 07716921514 or email . We will endeavour to respond to voicemails as soon as we can, but please note that the phone is manned by volunteers so you may not get an immediate response.
