Izzie and all the staff at the Raven made us all feel so welcome. Everyone was so lovely and helpful and I can’t imagine wanting to use any other venue for our screenings ever again. We were all made to feel so at home and everyone who attended had a lovely time. The location is perfect and all the kit works perfectly. The space is so cosy and is set up for events like ours.
