Room hire
At the Whitfield Centre in Batley, we provide a welcoming community space for hire. Whether you’re organising that special family celebration, hosting an event for your community group or need a venue to hold a meeting or training session, our flexible space spread across two large halls and a meeting room can accommodate your needs. We also offer the hire of a fully equipped catering kitchen.
Funds raised from room hire are then used to keep our visual impairment support services running, so choosing our venue for hire is a great way to donate to the Outlookers charity!
