Community Hire
The performing arts are a social and emotional lifeline for many in our communities – and we’re proud to be home to diverse groups using art, music, dance and theatre to support children, those living with mental health problems, learning disabilities, dementia or isolation and loneliness.

Our facilities:
Main Auditorium
The Pump House’s Main Theatre is a raked auditorium which can seat 124 people and comprises a stage, wings and backstage dressing rooms with a toilet. There is wheelchair access from the side entrance. It’s an ideal space for theatre workshops and performances. A full PA system and access to our theatre sound and lighting equipment is available to you as part of your hire rate. We charge an extra £50 a day if you want to use our projector.
Colne River Room
The room has no fixed seating and chairs can be arranged in whatever layout your group or activity requires. A small stage and PA system are included in your hire rate. And it has its own, separate, accessible entrance, foyer and toilets.
Smaller Group Spaces
Our Charles Room is ideal for small group activities while our Upper Rehearsal Rooms are two large, flexible, multi-purpose spaces which are well suited for holding workshops and larger group activities in. But please note, the Rehearsal Rooms are not wheelchair accessible as they are upstairs.
