Rainbows: A community centre (ex council run, some funding from them still, but now run/managed by a comittee of people in the community). Built 1990s I think, so warm, insulated, dry etc.
Rent 50p per participant per meeting (no charge for leaders).Has 1 large hall, 1 small meeting room, kitchen, foyer with coathooks, toilets. Small paved outdoor space with gate to both that we can padlock.
Each hirer is responsible for cleaning up after their meeting, eg wiping any tables used, sweeping the floor of glitter/compost/food crumbs etc but the centre also employs a cleaner (once a week I think) for the general stuff.
Rainbows have sole use during our meetings. Our Rangers meet in the same place, but just hire the meeting room, while a yoga class uses the main hall. Brownie and Guide units also meet there, but the Guides (big hall) share with another group using the meeting room).
