Seth Ward Community Centre

The Community Centre is run for the people of Buntingford by the Buntingford Town Council through the auspices of Action to Benefit the Community.

The ABC Committee is made up from volunteers as well as a Town Councillor. There is a Centre Manager who is responsible for the bookings and day to day running. The Town Council provides administration and back up to the ABC committee and the Manager.

This modern building houses a number of function rooms as well as sports changing and shower facilities. Local clubs and societies receive preferential hire rates. New hirers, intending to use the centre for regular bookings, may qualify for half rate charges for the first 4 weeks.

Besides clubs and societies, the Centre makes an ideal location for private parties as well as public functions and fund raising events. Its large car park and disabled access are an added benefit.

Bunters Suite offers an ideal venue for the smaller events such as christenings and children's parties. Its official licensed limit is 110 but the design makes it purpose built for smaller numbers. There is a kitchen/bar area with a reasonable sized ante-room known as the Charlton Room. These are located on the first floor and all three can be hired at a special party rate.

Campbell Hall has a capacity of 220 with a stage, lighting and sound systems. The high ceiling also makes it ideal for sporting activities such as badminton. Very popular for larger parties and social events. There is an adjoining bar and also a serving hatch to the kitchen.

Charlton and Scott Rooms are ideal for meetings and smaller events.
