The hall is managed by a Charitable Trust - No 287424 - Set up in the early 1980's after the building stopped being a church school. There is a downloadable copy of the deed available below.

The trustees meet every few months, they manage the business of the hall. There is an AGM every March, when reports are presented and members voted for. New people are always very welcome to be appointed. Regular user groups are entitled to nominate their own representative trustee, or at least turn up to engage.

The hall has a strong creative basis, being used by various groups of artists and craft workers for regular classes and occasional exhibitions, these are listed on a separate page with the calendar.

Since "school days" the hall has hosted an annual craft show in July, featuring the work of local makers. Recently the same team have been running a pre-Christmas show.
