Tips for room bookings
-
Leave rooms exactly as you find them, and do not leave any rubbish behind.
-
Dispose of anything you're throwing away in the appropriate general waste or recycling bin. Do not put glass in indoor recycling bins.
-
When making your booking, you must account for any time you need for set-up or take-down. So if your event begins at 1pm but you need to set up the room first, you need to book the room earlier (e.g. 12pm).
-
All catering to rooms on campus must be provided by Queen's Campus Food and Drink.
-
You might be asked to fill in a Risk Assessment for certain bookings. You then submit this to the Clubs and Societies team in the SU.
-
If your event is going to require cleaning, fire safety checks, or help from Queen's porters or Security, speak to the SU Clubs & Societies team. We can submit these requests on your behalf via PlanOn, the University's internal service booking system. Just keep in mind that your Club / Society may be charged for these extra services.
-
Remember that you are not permitted to bring your own alcohol into any campus spaces. If you want to run an event involving alcohol, you can use the Union Bar, or contact Campus Food and Drink to organise the provision of alcoholic beverages at your activity.
-
Whatever space you use, you are expected to treat all attendees and SU and University staff with respect and courtesy. Aggressive or abusive language will not be tolerated, nor will any inappropriate or threatening behaviour. If you are asked to moderate your behaviour or leave the area, you should cooperate with these requests. If you feel you have been treated unfairly, you may raise this issue in writing to the SU Clubs & Societies team.
