Free hire voucher trial

13 Oct, 2023
We have a number of gift vouchers to give eligible groups and individuals free access to our community space.

Thanks to funding from the UK Shared Prosperity Fund we are trialing a free hire scheme in our community buildings.

We have a number of gift vouchers to give away to eligible groups and individuals to increase access to community space. The idea is to remove barriers for people who might struggle to pay for the space but also to reach out to new groups who are not currently using our venues and invite them in.

We are testing out the scheme over the next six months and will then review it. If you want to find out more pop in to Easton Community Centre, email contact@upourstreet.org.uk or call 0117 954 1409.

Eligibility criteria for the scheme were agreed upon by the board of trustees and staff team.
