Before your hire

• Access codes and an emergency contact number are normally emailed around three weeks before your hire date.
• Let the bookings co-ordinator know in advance if you need extra crockery, round tables or access to the locked corridor and storage rooms.
• Larger bookings may be asked for an £80 damage deposit, invoiced with the hire charge and returned after the booking once breakages have been checked.

Arrival

2. The top box holds the front door key.
3. The bottom box is used when you need access to the locked corridor and storage rooms as well as the main door key.
4. The alarm panel is on the wall to the right as you enter the building.
5. Use the access code supplied before your booking to disarm the alarm.

Leaving the Hub
