Church & Hall Policies

Related to this section ...

Letting Policies

Below, available for download, is a sample Letting policy and related documents.  You would need to change parts of the documents to suit your particular situation.

Thank you to St Cuthbert's, Carlisle for offering the work they have done on this to the whole Diocese.

NB Some years ago, an extreme (fascist) organisation masqueraded as a bonafide organisation (the RSPB, I think) in order to book a hall for what would actually have been a political meeting.  This is part of the reasoning lying behind the idea of getting a reference for an unknown hirer.

Risk Assessments

Also below, available for download, are sample Risk Assessments (for fire, and other hazards) and related documents. You would need to change parts of the documents to suit your particular situation.

Thank you to St Cuthbert's, Carlisle for offering the work they have done on this to the whole Diocese.
