All venues feature free Wi-Fi and state of the art audio-visual equipment.

Their venues are COVID secure, they have the Visit Britain “We’re Good to Go” accreditation and have also put together a “You’re in Safe Hands” document to outline their commitment to following cleaning, health & safety and socially distanced protocols so that event organisers can be reassured of hosting their event in a safe location.
