How to Make a Booking

Follow these simple steps:

• Use the red buttons above to explore each room. Each room page includes all the information you should need, including the price, photographs, and maximum capacities based on various room layouts.

• Click the BOOK NOW button to visit the calendar app where you can check availability and request your booking.

• The calendar app allows a 30 minute gap between each session. This promotes a smooth transition from one booking to the next. If the system won't let you book a room, it's not available.

• Complete your booking request in the calendar app by clicking the Booking Enquiry button or by clicking directly on a time slot on the calendar.

• Please bear with us while we review your booking request and get back to you.

Other Important Information

Indemnity/Public Liability Insurance

We provide indemnity insurance via Trafford Council for voluntary groups, other non profit making organisations and individuals using the centre for non-profit making purposes only (eg. some ad-hoc bookings, community groups and meetings etc.). A fee of 10% of your hire charge will be added to your invoice for this service.  The cover can NOT extend to companies, organisations or individuals using the centre for profit making commercial ventures, in which case you will be expected to provide your own indemnity insurance of at least £5m (See terms of hire for more information).

Invoicing and Payment

One-off Bookings: These will be invoiced upon confirmation of your booking - payment is due once we issue the invoice.

Regular Weekly or Monthly Bookings: A monthly invoice will be issued for bookings that occur during that month. Payment is due within 15 days. For more details, see our Associate Membership page.

Please note that hourly room rates displayed are subject to change at any time.
