Fleur de Lys Meeting Room Available for Community to Hire

Hailsham Town Council is pleased to announce that the Fleur de Lys Meeting Room, located within the Town Council offices in Market Street, is now available for community hire. This follows the temporary closure of the building due to major refurbishment and essential electrical works.

Community groups, voluntary organisations and local residents are invited to book the room for both regular and one-off events. The space is ideal for a wide range of activities, including social clubs, toddler and pre-school groups, craft exhibitions, training sessions, business meetings, public consultations and seminars.

The Fleur de Lys Meeting Room can comfortably accommodate up to 30 people and offers a flexible layout to suit various requirements. Facilities include tables and chairs, a toilet, and a fitted kitchen equipped with cutlery, crockery, kettle and fridge. Access to the venue is through the garden entrance at the rear of the Town Council building.

Tony Lee, Operations & Facilities Manager at Hailsham Town Council, commented: “The Fleur de Lys Meeting Room, part of the historic Grade II listed Inglenook building, offers a centrally located and affordable venue just a short walk from the town centre and free parking facilities. For many years, this meeting room has served as a welcoming and private space for local groups, charities and public sector bodies. We’re delighted to continue offering this valuable community resource again, following the complete refurbishment of the building.”

He added: “Whether you’re hosting a training session, an exhibition, a playgroup or simply need a quiet space for interviews or meetings, the Fleur de Lys Meeting Room is a convenient and cost-effective solution.”

The Fleur de Lys Meeting Room is available for hire Monday to Friday from 9am-4pm, at affordable rates for both community groups and private users.

In addition to the Fleur de Lys Meeting Room, the Town Council also offers the Members’ Room for hire – a smaller, private space ideal for corporate or committee meetings, accommodating up to 10 people.
