USER’S GUIDE TO BETHERSDEN VILLAGE HALL

 

Keys and entry

1. Entry is by the front doors. If necessary, latch them using the door chains.

2. The front door keys are in two key safe boxes by the kitchen door. The key safe box on the left is for regular users; the one on the right is for occasional users. The two boxes have different access codes. Please return the keys to the relevant box on leaving the Hall and ensure the box is locked.

3. In addition to the front door keys, the key ring has the key for the sound system in the Hall and the key for the cupboard in the small room next to the kitchen, which contains an extension lead and chargers for the electric window blinds.

Lighting

1. If it is dark and lights are necessary, the switches for the ladies and gents toilets, the entrance lobby and outside lights for the Hall (left and right) and the car park are located in a panel to the right of the lobby and are clearly marked.

2. The lights for the kitchen are located to the right of the kitchen entrance. There is a further switch by the kitchen door.

3. The main Hall has two rows of fluorescent light tubes. The switch for the main hall is located to the right of the door as you go in.
