Hire of Accommodation

Hanwell Methodist Church is happy to hire its halls
and rooms, but please note that it does not accept
bookings for parties of any kind, and it does not allow
alcoholic drinks, opened or unopened, anywhere on
its premises, including the car park, field and outdoor
access pathways.

The Church's rooms vary in size, and range from the
large Main Hall to the Meeting Room. All, except for
the Main Hall, are newly decorated and have wooden
or carpeted floors. Our toilets (Ladies, Gents and Accessible) have been completely refurbished recently, and the entire premises are cleaned twice a day and are well-maintained. Broadband wifi, with a safeguarding lock, is available throughout the premises. The system name (SSID) and password are given to all hirers (if requested) when a booking is confirmed.

The following is a brief description of each room/hall:

A discount of 20% is given when one of the rooms is booked for more than 15 hours per week, or when the entire premises are booked at the same time. A scaled plan of each room can be found by simply clicking the button below.

THE MAIN HALL (£24 per hour)

The Main Hall has a stage with front and new backdrop curtains, a piano, and a serving hatch which opens into the main kitchen.

THE MAIN KITCHEN (£20 per hour)

Use of this kitchen (for making hot drinks or snacks, for example) is free of charge when a room at Hanwell Methodist is booked. However, if the cooker is used, there is a charge of £20 per hour. The kitchen must be left clean and tidy after use.

THE MEMORIAL HALL (£24 per hour)

A bright hall at the rear of the premises, slightly smaller than the Main Hall with no stage. New double fire doors have been fitted, providing both good ventilation and an extra entrance/exit.

THE CENTENARY ROOM (£20 per hour)

The Centenary Room is the vestibule of the Church, but is a room in its own right, with a small kitchen, an accessible toilet and changing room, and a small side room. It is carpeted, and the doors lead directly on to the car park. The hirer operates the electric heaters as there is no central heating in this room.
