Welcome to Burwash Common Pavilion

PLEASE NOTE: IT IS MOST UNLIKELY THAT A PARTY CAN FIT WITHIN THE CURRENT GUIDELINES

PLEASE DON'T ASK US TO BREAK THE RULES - WE COULD LOSE OUR LICENSE AND WE COULD BOTH BE HEAVILY FINED

The Pavilion can be made available subject to the following:

1.  All Hirers MUST carefully check and follow  current guidelines from government, any governing body for their activity, and their insurers
2. All Hirers MUST review our Risk Assessment (see below) and complete a Risk Assessment covering the actions taken and any additional actions for their activity.   Sending a copy of the Risk Assessment to us is a condition of hire but we will not review it - it is entirely the Hirer's responsibility.  Hirers are then responsible for providing signage appropriate to their event, relating to distancing, masks, sanitising, etc. and for ensuring implementation of all the actions identified.  
3. The Risk Assessment has floor layouts to help you plan.  You can also find a video showing the 2m markings here: https://youtu.be/mSZi6vXnSvk
4. Hirers MUST, by law, keep a record of attendees for 21 days.  They should also keep a note of any who would not wish their details to be passed to NHS Track and Trace in the event of an outbreak.  The list must not be used for any other purpose, unless it is part of an existing process.  This is most easily done by electronic booking, which also enables the Hirer to provide guidelines to participants in advance of the session.
5. We are not currently offering use of the Bar, though we may in time be able to offer self-service drinks on a sale or return basis
6. Because of the need for ventilation, meaning that doors and windows will be open, noise must be minimised after 7pm
7. If an event has to be cancelled because of government advice or order, the premises not being prepared correctly for the intended activity, or any other cause, our liability to the hirer is limited to a refund of any hire fee or deposit already paid.  

You should read the government's guidelines here:

and here:  https://www.gov.uk/guidance/working-safely-during-coronavirus-covid-19/providers-of-grassroots-sport-and-gym-leisure-facilities 

We have provided our Risk Assessment in both PDF and MS Word formats.  Those who want to copy our efforts may do so with the proviso that they must take responsibility for their finished document being legally acceptable for their activity.
