Hall for All

Apply for free space

Giving LOCAL ideas the space to grow at Hornsey Town Hall.

Apply for up to 25 hours of free event space

For generations, Hornsey Town Hall has stood at the heart of Crouch End, a place where people gather, celebrate and create. As its doors open once again, Hall for All is inviting the community back in.

The initiative will offer up to 25 hours of free use of one of the building’s newly restored event spaces to a local business, charity, or organisation using it to benefit the people of Haringey.

The aim is simple: to keep this landmark building alive with the spirit it was built for, as a civic space that supports creativity, connection and collaboration.

Whether it’s for workshops, training sessions, performances, exhibitions or community meetings, Hall for All will give local ideas room to take shape and grow – ensuring Hornsey Town Hall continues to serve the community that surrounds it.

The process

How it works

Event space will be available at no cost (excluding utilities and staffing) for local organisations, charities, social enterprises or community-led businesses that are based in, operate within, or have a strong connection to Haringey, and can demonstrate the social impact their activity will bring.

Interested groups will be asked to submit an application, outlining how they plan to use the space and the benefits it will create for the local community. Applications will be assessed against a set of criteria, including:

The strength of local connection or community relevance

The potential social or cultural impact of the proposed activity

The organisation’s need and ability to deliver the proposed event or initiative

Selected applicants will receive up to 50 hours of free use of one of Hornsey Town Hall’s event spaces within an agreed timeframe.

Singers perform at CREATE.

Key Dates

Coming soon.

Details and opening dates will be announced very shortly.
