21st March 2020
Following the latest government advice on the Coronavirus outbreak (COVID-19), we’ve made the decision to close Abbeydale Sports and Community Centre and Phoenix Café Bar from Saturday 21 March 2020 until Thursday 30 April 2020.
We are no longer taking event or Artificial Training Pitch bookings for the period of Saturday 21st March to Thursday 30 April 2020.
Our first priority is the health and safety of our users, volunteers and staff. That’s why we’re following the guidelines provided by Public Health England and have taken this decision.
What does this mean for me?
If you have booked a room for a Disco Party Package or any other celebration event during this period of closure, we’ll be in touch shortly to move your event booking to another time of your choosing.
If you book the centre for regular bookings we will also be in touch shortly.
How do I postpone my Event?
We are currently contacting all event bookers impacted directly to help them rearrange and postpone their event to a later date.
If you’re unsure of the dates that you’d like to postpone your event to, we can hold your booking to give you the opportunity to talk to the rest of your party and choose an alternative date.
What if I want to cancel my Event?
We would really rather you didn’t do this – as a Registered Charity we rely entirely upon our room and Artificial Training Pitch rental income to maintain the facilities and pay the staff at Abbeydale Sports and Community Centre. If however you do decide to cancel we will repay the amount paid within 28 days.
What If I want to make a booking for an Event after 30th April?
Please contact our Centre Administration team as normal by email to admin@abbeydale.org.uk
Further updates will be posted here as the situation develops.
