Hall / Room Hire
If you wish to hire the use of one our halls or rooms for a single private event (e.g. a birthday party), you will need to contact the church office to be advised if the hall is available at the date and time required.
A prerequiste of hiring a hall / room for a private function is that the hirer is either a member of the St Nicholas congregation, or has a family member who is a member of the St Nicholas congregation.
In addition, if the hire is for a birthday party, the child, for whom the party is for, must be 16 years or less on the day the hall / room hire takes place.
Unfortunately, if you cannot meet the prerequisites we will be unable to take your booking.
If you meet the above prerequisites please read the Terms and Conditions of hall/room hire.
If you are happy to proceed, please contact the office by telephone (671547), and we will check that the date/time is available, inform you of the costs involved, and explain the booking process.
The church reserves the right to amend the Terms and Conditions for hall/room hire without notice.
Weddings
St. Nicholas is often seen as a very desirable venue for weddings
and is consequently fairly busy, especially during the summer
months.
The first point of contact when seeking to book the church for a wedding, is to contact the minister to check the availability of the church.
Once the church is booked and the reception organised, there are legal requireements which must be carried out. For details, and a selection of suggested wedding music and hymns click here.
Baptisms
There are a number of occasions each year when the minister has people coming to him to ask that their child be baptised, without necessarily having any great understanding as to what it means or involves. Read More
