Hall Rental

Hall and Facility Rental at Penshurst Anglican Church

Thank you for your interest in holding your event at Penshurst Anglican Church. Our church facilities are available for rent to both members and non-members. The list below contains information about our facilities that we hope will be helpful to you in planning your event. Please also read the PAC Hall Hire Agreement (in two parts as Licence Memorandum and Licence Schedule). For more information, please contact Penshurst Anglican Church offices at 02 9580 1217. More contact details can be found here.

Please note that it is a condition of all hires that the hire must be covered by a valid public liability insurance policy. If you already have a valid policy, you must supply us with a copy of the Certificate of Currency which notes the interests of Penshurst Anglican Church on the policy. For one-off hires, if you don't already have a relevant policy, then we can extend our policy to cover your event. The Public Liability Insurance Form (One-Off Hirers) must be completed and payment of $61.86 (ordinarily $161.86 but subsidised by the Anglican Church Property Trust) must be made directly to our insurers, Ansvar Insurance Limited.

You may want to use the checklist to gain an understanding of the process involved in hiring the hall.
