Frequently asked questions

Probably not. A typical community hall has 1 building, a handful of trustees, and a quarter's worth of jobs to track. That fits inside Free comfortably. If you do outgrow it, the cheapest upgrade is the Pro plan at £49/month.

The volunteer-run reality

Most community halls run on goodwill, a part-time bookings officer, and a trustees' meeting every quarter. The compliance work is real — fire risk, electricals, food hygiene during events — but the volume is low. SAMRISK's free plan covers it: one building, three users, the core features, no time limit.

If you start hosting bigger events, add the Visitor Logbook (£15/month) for a public QR sign-in. If you switch to a paid hall manager and want recurring audits, upgrade to Pro (£49/month). Until then, free works.
