Lettings
We are fortunate at Fortismere to have some fantastic facilities for the enjoyment of students. We are lucky to be able to let out our premises to the community, during evenings, weekends and school holidays, so that others may also enjoy the space and to help raise funds for the school. Situated in the heart of Muswell Hill, the school is convenient for buses and London Underground (East Finchley Tube).
We have parking facilities but are keen to promote walking, cycling and public transport. Both outdoor and indoor facilities are hired by a wide range of organisations including sports and arts groups, residents’ associations and community groups, at competitive rates. We have flexible options available so you can hire our spaces by the hour for one-off events or for regular block sessions.

FAQs
Q: Will there be audio/visual equipment available (eg PA system)?
A: Our PA system can be hired at an additional one-off fee of £150.00. You are welcome to bring your own items with you, as long as they have been PAT-tested (see question about electrical equipment below).
Q: Can we use any kitchen facilities?
A: Unfortunately, we do not allow the use of our kitchens, but visitors may bring in their own catering from outside.
Q: Can we bring alcohol onto the premises?
A: If the alcohol is for private consumption, it is fine to bring it onto the premises, however, in order to sell it, you will need to apply to Haringey Council for a licence.
Q: Can we bring electrical equipment onto the premises (eg kettles, urns, DJ equipment, lighting etc)?
A: Yes, you are very welcome to bring any items onto the premises but they must have been PAT-tested (portable appliance testing) and evidence of this will need to be shown to the Site Team before they can be used. The Site Team reserves the right to deny permission for use in the absence of suitable evidence.
