Training Room Hire Terms & Conditions
These terms and conditions together with the room hire booking form comprise the agreement pursuant to which Progressive Training and Development provides rooms to the customer ("the hirer").
Hire Charges
The hire charges are as set out on the "Our Rooms" page.
When you get a breakdown of what your booking consists of you will only be provided with the extras listed on that breakdown. Therefore, please pay close attention to what is listed, and let us know immediately if we have missed out any of your requirements. If you have not received a breakdown and would like one, please request it.
Payment
A non-refundable deposit of 30% of the room hire charge is payable on reservation. The balance will be due 10 working days prior to commencement of the hire period. In the event of a booking being made within 10 days of the commencement of the hire period, the full payment is payable immediately.
In some special cases, hirers will be able to pay by weekly standing order (in advance). However, the full cost will be charged each week and they will forego any discounts applied to the multiple bookings.
For hirers paying by card, we would be pleased to automatically take the balance owing on the due date using the same card, with the hirer's permission.
Progressive Training and Development reserve the right to charge late payment interest at a rate of 4% above the Bank of England base rate on any outstanding invoices.
Use of premises
The hirer, their staff, agents and visitors must only use those rooms which are specified in the hire confirmation.
The hirer must declare at the outset the purpose of the room hire and the room/s must be used for that purpose only. The hirer shall not permit more than the maximum number of people specified in the agreement to be in the room at any time.
The hirer must leave the premises in a clean and tidy condition. The hirer agrees to indemnify Progressive Training and Development against any loss, theft or damage however caused, during or in respect of the hire period.
Noise
The hirer, their staff, agents or visitors must not make or permit to be made any noise which may interfere with the use of other rooms within the building or other hirers, Progressive Training and Development staff or any adjoining neighbours.

Reserved
If you would like us to reserve a room for a particular date, then you will need to escalate your quote to Reserved and pay the 30% deposit.
Once reserved, if we get another client interested in booking the same date (or all three training rooms on that date become reserved) then we will give you 24 hours to confirm and pay the balance of your reserved date or transfer it to another date.
