REGULAR CLUBS, CLASSES & GROUPS

The Reading Room provides a versatile meeting space for a variety of different groups. Our existing groups meet weekly, others bi-weekly or monthly.  What sets the Room apart is our flexibility – you can tailor the facilities to suit your needs, in a way that few other venues will allow.

There is a wide variety of classes, workshops and groups that take place throughout the week at the Reading Room.  We call these, our regular hirers.  They operate their businesses using the Reading Room as their base (or one of the venues they run their classes at).  The image below shows which classes and running and when.  To take part, please us the contact details on the image.

Here are some of the benefits of hiring the Reading Room for your class, club or meeting:

​

  • The versatile layout can accommodate different types of activity, with larger (and louder!) groups in the Main Hall (with a capacity of 100), while the Billiard Room offers a more intimate meeting space (capacity of 30). See Gallery for potential room layouts.

  • There is ample locked storage space, and many of our clients leave equipment onsite in between classes, which is a major convenience for them.  Please note that a nominal storage fee will apply.

  • Each room has its own kitchen, stocked with crockery, cutlery, a fridge freezer and dishwasher (main kitchen only), as well as bathroom facilities.

  • The main hall has a great sound system that you can plug into using your own device to play background music for your session and the Reading Room holds the appropriate licenses for this.  Please note, if your requirements fall outside of the scope of this licence you may be required to provide proof of your own licences or pay an additional fee so that our licence can be updated to incporporate your needs.

  • As part of your hire agreement, the classes or workshops that you run from the Reading Room will be promoted on our website and Facebook page.

  • Curdridge has excellent transportation links: Botley Railway Station is less than a mile away and the village is less than 10 minutes from the M27 motorway.

  • There is free parking onsite for your clients to use and, if your child is attending a dance class, there is a play area and the recreation ground for any siblings to blow off a little steam whilst they wait.

​
