Slinfold Village Hall & Cinema
Slinfold Village Hall has been situated at the heart of this quintessential English village for 140 years – but the trustees have ensured that it continues to meet the requirements and expectations of modern users.

The hall underwent a thorough refurbishment and extension, completed in 2001; the main hall was further enlarged in 2004; and additional improvements to the facilities continue to be pursued by the Trustees.
The Village Hall adjoins St Peter’s churchyard and is within 50 yards of the village school

The Main Hall accommodates up to 100, and is complemented by a modern, well-equipped Kitchen. On the first-floor of the modern extension is the Parish Room, which accommodates up to 50 in a ‘cosier’ committee-style room with its own kitchenette.
Both rooms are available for hire, separately or together, for private, community or commercial events. Slinfold residents and groups are entitled to preferential hiring rates (see under Tariffs).
Being immediately adjacent to the church (although run completely independently from the church), the hall is conveniently placed for receptions following christenings, weddings and funerals at the church. It is popular for children’s parties, and for adults’ celebrations with dining and/or dancing. There are occasional community and arts events, jumble sales, and other charity and commercial events. It is well used by local clubs and societies.
The building has:
- central heating and double-glazing throughout;
- no steps throughout the ground floor;
- ‘superfast’ broadband and Wi-Fi throughout the building;
- bluetooth-connected PA/sound system in the Main Hall;
- modern Ladies’, Gents’ and handicapped persons’ toilets;
- nappy-changing facilities.
The toilets are situated off the entrance hall, and thus are available to all, even when different groups are hiring the Main Hall and Parish Room.
Storage facilities are available for the use of regular hirers.
