advance. This bond will be returned (less any deductions) within 28

Damage
The hirer (who must be over 18 and be present throughout the
period of the hire) is responsible for ensuring that the centre is
returned without damage. In the event of damage being
incurred the cost of the repairs is the hirer's
responsibility. If the cost of the damage is greater than the
bond the additional cost is payable on demand.
Bio-Hazard
In the event of contamination of bio-hazard (e.g. Blood, vomit
and/or Excreta) the duty caretaker ( the number is on the notice
board next to the Health & safety Notices) is to be advised
immediately. There is an emergency telephone in the entrance
hall, dial 9 for an outside line. On no account should hirers
attempt to clear the contamination. A charge of £20 per
instance will be payable to cover the costs of protective equipment
and bio-hazard disposal.
