The team were so friendly, supportive and responsive throughout. I was able to come see the room the evening before and it was the perfect central london space for our event.

Book Launch · 50 guests · February 2026
The room was on the ground floor, had enough chairs, two tables, water and glasses all beautifully set out as ordered. The staff a the Community Centre were helpful and professional. We had access to a kitchen next to the room where we could store our drinks. The location of the venue was super easy for people to get to. Overall, I'd love to book this space again and use it for future events or workshops. We also had some of our guests saying how convenient the space seemed and expressed interest in booking it themselves. It was also nice to think of the rental fee supporting a local community centre.
Many of the chairs had stains on them and I needed to get some cleaning spray from the kitchen to clean the tables before we set out our goods and refreshments. The bathroom - while nice and accessible and right opposite the room, which was great - was not clean.
