Hire With Purpose: Supporting Local Scouting
When you hire our new venue, you are doing more than just booking a space – you are directly supporting the local community.
1st Needham Market Scout Group is a registered charity, and our venue hire operates entirely on a not-for-profit basis. Every single penny raised from hiring out the Scout Centre goes straight back into the group. Your booking fees are vital contributions that help us:
- Cover the running costs and maintenance of our fantastic new purpose-built facility.
- Buy new equipment for our youth members.
- Continue providing everyday adventure, activities, and skills for life to local young people.
⚠️ Please Note: • We do not hire the Scout Centre for adult parties or adult functions that include alcohol.
• We provide the hall in a clean and tidy condition and we ask that it is left the same way once your hire period is finished. Please ensure that all your rubbish is taken away with you.
• All fees are used to maintain the facilities at 1st Needham Market Scout Group or are used to fund 1st Needham Market Scout Group which is a registered charity.
