Information for Organisers

All of our conference guests are warmly welcome and we trust that the facilities and hospitality provided will be satisfactory.

As we are a church, and not a dedicated conference centre, there will be other groups and members of the public sharing the building. For information about the other activities happening in the centre on a regular basis click here, or to find out more about the church click here.
