The Coney Hall Trust is a registered charity with The Charity Commission. The Trustees have responsibility for operating and overseeing the ongoing operation of the halls.
All trustees are volunteers and work collectively for the benefit of the Trust.
Currently our Trustees are; Mr. Robert Smithson (Chair of Trustees), Mr. Jeff Seabrook (Treasurer). Mrs Jenny Harknett, Mr Chris Cooper, Mrs Christine Burch and Rev Jon Ward. All Trustees are volunteers and all have specific duties but of course all act corporately for the benefit of the Trust and meet regularly.
Employed by the Trustees are:-
Mrs. S Koureas, who is our Clerk to the Trustees, and deals with our bookings and finances.
All bookings and enquiries should be made through Mrs Koureas at the office – the answer phone is available when the office is closed. Caretakers can be contacted if urgent on 020 8462 5557 but please note that our caretakers are unable to accept bookings.
