Important notice for parishioners using St George’s Hall – There have been several instances in the last few weeks of the hall doors being left unlocked, lights not switched off, the cooker switch left on and the heating being left on for 24 hours. If your group uses the hall, the leader, or leader on that day is held responsible for ensuring the hall is left clean, floor swept for the next user, lights and heating switched off, windows shut and doors locked. It is important that the hall is used by parish groups, but with this comes a huge responsibility for its care.
