Coal Aston Village Hall, (the charity), does not promote it's own concerts apart from the above.

We try to ensure that contact details are provided for each and every event that takes place at Coal Aston Village Hall.

The Village Hall enjoys a number of customers who have based or make regular bookings for their groups, classes, clubs, events and meetings.

We are aware that without some form of security that accommodations can be made - there is a risk in booking 3, 6, 12 or more months ahead which in some cases will be essential to you.

We have put together some advice for those wanting to make long term bookings at the Village Hall - See our Regular Bookings and our Conditions of Letting Advice.

The committee that runs the Charity responsible for Coal Aston Village Hall is aware that anyone who hires our facilities, for all the various activities and groups who use us, may appreciate any 'extra help' that we can offer. 

We believe that by encouraging more groups, more people and more activities to take advantage of the facilities available then this a community benefit for everyone.

• We can do for you using our Website and Facebook  to increase your visibility on the internet
  Your help would be required to supply us with the information about what you do, the benefits for those that attend and anything else that would encourage people to come along and join up

• We can discuss ways in which by using the wider internet people can be attracted by 'free web advertising' of taster sessions' just to get them into the building and into your class or join your group.

By featuring you and what you do on our main website, and by creating and publishing regular Facebook events and with your help you will be visible to many more people – some of whom will become interested..

By letting us know more about what you do we hope that we can increase the numbers of people interested in your sessions

This is a free offer managed by volunteers meaning we cannot guarantee this service or it's results - only that we are interested in your success - helping you helps us!

This is an Overview of what we may be able to provide for you Free of Charge!

• Starting with a poster, (generally ~A4 sized), or any materials ~ see below, we will  add your poster(s) to our website home page and may post it to our Facebook Page and/or our Google Business Account.
  We may even host specific pages on our website covering you and your bookings in more detail if you make regular long term bookings with the village hall.

  1. If you already have one or more posters - we will accept them in any electronic format but preferably as .JPG or .PNG files.

     • Anything else we will convert to a .JPG format e.g. ~.PDF; Word Files; generally most other formats.

  2. We can and do create & design 'posters' from your existing words and images but to repeat this is a free volunteer provided service - if you want to review and amend your design 'until its just right' then you need to get this work done by a professional service.  

     • These 'posters' are free from us but we accept no liability if the contents are incorrect or result in subsequent costs to you.

     • If the images or content are not yours to use, (i.e. are subject to copyright), and result in any damages then these will need to be met by you.

  3. If you have any organisational or other website links that can provide useful information to your prospective customers we will try to include them in an easy to use fashion.

  4. When  we design 'posters' for you they can be used by you for your own requirements:

     • • You can copy and/or have them printed for noticeboards or use as required.

         • if reasonable they can be printed as A5 or A6 copies to be left in batches with local Tourist Information Offices or any other public sites that allow this to happen.

       • You can use the 'electronic files' wherever you wish.

  5. Posters held on our website are removed once the event(s) or bookings they refer to are completed.

  6. The position of a 'poster' on our website is not and cannot be chosen - however, we do try to maintain a rough order which is generally:

     • Topline covers the next set of one-off public events such as Concerts, Plays, talks etc.

     • Regular events such as Short Mat Bowling, Dog Training are generally fitted below the top line with every other type of notice often with the latest 'poster' nearer to the top.

     • We do not regularly 'monitor' the home page 'poster' section and can only respond to input from the hirer if they need to update or change their promotional material.

This is a free offer managed by volunteers meaning we cannot guarantee this service or it's results - we are here to help - we are interested in your success - helping you helps us!
