General
A deposit equivalent to one month's licence fee or £250 (which ever the higher) is charged on the issuing of the first licence. This is refundable on surrender of the licence (subject to the unit being handed over in an acceptable state for re-letting - deductions will be made to cover the cost of any work required to bring the unit up to an acceptable standard)
All licence holders are responsible for health and safety within their own unit including the provision of appropriate fire extinguishers.
All licence holders are responsible as part of the Centre community to consider each others well being and safety, behave responsibly, and ensure that all facilities are respected.
