We can accommodate groups from 2 to 150 people in our meeting and training spaces. We also regularly host parties, Mehndis and other community celebrations in our beautiful Middleton Hall.
We particularly welcome enquiries from other charities and community not-for-profits, who can benefit from our charitable discounts. Our venue comes equipped with high-speed fibre optic broadband (900MBs), concierge services, kitchens, break-out spaces and even a roof garden.
You can relax in the knowledge that 100% of all hire costs go towards supporting our 135 year old charity and community programmes.
