The definition of a parish group is one which is recognised by the parish priest or parish school as such and is either a registered charity or submits an account of its income, expenditure and assets to the parish priest or parish school at least annually.

We will not permit the hiring of the centre by individuals or organisations where the intention or affect of the event is to promote actions or ideas that are clearly contrary to the church's teachings or the law.

We do not allow eighteenth birthday parties to be held on our premises.

We reserve the right to refuse to accommodate an event (without notice or even after its commencement) if the hirer has deliberately and obviously mislead us to the nature of the event because they know that it may otherwise be refused or to gain a cheaper hire fee. (eg. Stating 'family party' when the intention is to hold an eighteenth or a where an event is put forward to us as being for the community or charity when its primary purpose is to make a profit for an individual or business.)
