INFORMATION FOR CLIENTS - USING THE HEATERS

We have had a lot of trouble with clients unable to start the heaters, and not turning them off correctly. Instructions are in a video here.

The Centre is located in Frencham Place, Downer, in a pleasant garden environment. Three rooms are available for rental by community organisations and  activity groups.

Not for profit community groups will always have priority over other groups.

Facilities at Downer Community Centre
There are three rooms available for hire, usually on a regular basis, to community groups and non-profit organisations. Refer to the Downer Community Centre Current Client Schedule above for possible vacancies and contact the Centre Coordinator at downercentre@gmail.com if you wish to proceed. Note that some hours each weekend are set aside for cleaning, and sometimes rooms are left vacant if a quiet group has booked one room and a similar group cannot be found for the adjacent room. There is a kitchen at the Centre and male and female toilets. However, the Centre does not have disabled toilet facilities.
If you make a booking, a key to the Centre will be made available. These are high security keys, and expensive to
cut, and you will be required to pay a $100 key bond at the time of signing an agreement. This bond is refundable at the end of the booking.
See the the slideshow above to view the rooms.
The East Hall seats up to 50. It has a lino floor, and is located next to the kitchen.

The West Hall seats up to 55, and is carpeted. No food or drink is allowed in this hall.
The East room seats 15-20, so is suitable for meetings or smaller groups.
