Need to hire a space for a regular or one-off event? The facilities at Franklyn Road Community Centre and The Octagon at Church Street are available to hire for your group or activity. The main room in the Busbridge Old Rectory is available to book on an ad-hoc basis.
As a community centre, St Mark’s Franklyn Road is well used by groups which hire the space for yoga, pilates, table tennis, drumming, book groups, chess and U3A.
The whole centre can be hired for an event such as a fair or a special birthday celebration, or the hall or studio can be booked separately.
The Church Hall has a cleverly designed altar area which can be closed off to make the church hall a multi-purpose activity space for the community.
The hall is light and spacious and often hired for activities such as keep fit, short mat bowls and pilates.
Approximate size 12m x 8m (39ft x 27ft)
The studio is a little smaller, light and welcoming with doors onto the garden. It is used by the NHS for special groups as well as toddler groups and a Warm Hub every Tuesday. With a hatch leading from our fully equipped kitchen, it is popular for children’s parties and workshops.
Approximate size 9.5m x 7m (31ft by 20ft)

The Octagon is accessed through the church. It can be used for exercise classes and by other groups. There’s a small kitchen, toilets and smaller rooms for prayer and counselling.
