Boscombe
Salvation Army is fortunate to have a wonderfully versatile building
complex. All the available rooms and halls within the building are
used for a variety of purposes and events. At maximum congregation
capacity, this hall seats approximately 450 people. The 'Platform'
area usually seats the featured group(s) or is used as a staging
area for items such as a Nativity scene at Christmas or the usual
Sunday groups featured e.g. the Corps Band
and Songsters.
The 'Main Hall' is used every week for the services at Boscombe
Salvation Army. It is also a popular venue for special Army events
such as music festivals, but is also used for events associated
with the army and other organisations such as local school events
and carol services.
Primarily the 'Main Hall' is a place of worship and continues to
be a place where people can be in the presence of the Lord whilst
sharing with friends and family.
The 'Young Peoples Hall' is also used every Sunday as a place for
the young people of Boscombe Salvation Army to meet.
The Y.P. Hall is possibly the most frequently used hall within the
building. As well as its Sunday use, the Y.P. Hall is in use most
days of the week - click here to see our complete list of weekly activities. Mainly used
by young people, the Y.P. Hall has featured events including quiz
nights, discos, parties, fellowship and much more.
The 'Community Hall' hosts many activities during the week and is
virtually as busy as the' Y.P. Hall'. Uses include 'POT's'
(Parents of Toddlers), Art Classes, Primary
(Sunday infants) and many others including the Home Circle, Young
in Heart, Luncheon Club and Ladies Fellowship.
These aforementioned halls are the main rooms used during the week,
but these are supported by others, including:
- a kitchen
- Band and Songster
rooms
- a 'Cry Room' (for babies during services)
- offices
- multiple toilet facilities (disabled included)
- a foyer entrance
