The Sanctuary / Cafe (Hybrid Meeting Space)

15m x 9m.  Set out with chairs for 140, and space in the gallery for a further 40. The space is available from £22.22 per hour. This space has the facility for video streaming, or zoom meetings.

The sanctuary has a video projector, several wireless mikes, including options for several fixed mikes on cables and an audio mixer. There are VGA inputs for the projector near the pulpit and in the balcony, and we have a HDMI to VGA adaptor. Alongside the 3m projector screen at the front we have a 65 inch LED monitor at the rear and 24 inch by the cafe for visual foldback.

From 2020 we now have the equipment to offer live stream and hybrid meetings, using 3 cameras. This requires a church AV technician but allows for live Zoom meetings, live streaming to YouTube and recording of meetings. There is an additional cost for these facilities, and it depends on our volunteer technician team’s availability. We charge an additional £50 for a 1-hour stream, which requires two technicians.

The sanctuary also features its own servery, with an instant hot water boiler, a doubled-headed barista-style coffee maker, as well as a filter coffee maker, sink and handwashing facilities.

The main church is used throughout the week, as a Pop-up cafe, and then on Sundays, and for occasional services, as our place of worship. During the week it is available for bookings.  We have a choice of chairs, from those used in worship to some lighter, stackable chairs we use for the cafe. The chairs can also be removed, or relocated, but we wouldn’t usually do this unless, in the case of a full-day booking, we had sufficient assistance to move the chairs.

The church is fitted with a good PA system, and video projection, with inputs downstairs, and upstairs.
