Asby Village Hall

COVID Lockdown 2.0  (5 Nov – 2 Dec)

For the duration of this latest lockdown the village hall will be regarded as an extension of the school in order for their activities to continue unaffected.

Consequently the hall will NOT be available for any other user groups.

We look forward to a more normal service being resumed in due course.

The Village Hall reopened as a Covid Secure premises on 3rd September.

• The hall is currently only available Saturday to Wednesday for local, regular users only. [It is in use by school on Thursday and Friday.]
• The kitchen and bar area will not be available.  [Other than to operate heating and PA controls.]
• Face coverings must be worn by all users (subject to any exemptions in current and future legislation).
• All hirers need to confirm their acceptance of our:
  Supplementary Conditions of Hire (COVID-19).
• A COVID-19 Risk Assessment  has been carried out, and should be consulted by all hirers.
• User groups are encouraged to consider a risk assessment specific to their particular activity.  A sample risk assessment for hirers may be found here.

What about the “Rule of Six”?

The official government guidance on the safe operation of village halls states that:
“Community facilities following COVID-19 secure guidelines can host more than 6 people in total, but no one should visit or socialise in a group of greater than 6.“

Note also that you should continue to social distance from anyone you do not live with.

The complete guidance document can be consulted here.

Although we are not able to accommodate new or one off bookings at the moment we welcome enquiries which will help us to ascertain the need for further measures to increase the availability of the hall.
