The Charis Centre

The Charis Centre is a flexible meeting and conference venue in Crawley, West Sussex, designed for businesses, charities, community groups and other organisations. The centre provides a choice of rooms for meetings, training sessions, workshops, coaching, seminars and larger conferences, with spaces that can be booked by the hour, day or week.

Ashurst Hall is the largest space, with a stage, built-in projection facilities and seating for up to 200 people in a theatre layout. Smaller rooms, including Barnham, Compton, Findon, Rusper, Lindfield, Kingsfold and Storrington, offer practical settings for board meetings, breakout sessions, classroom-style training and focused group work. Several rooms can be arranged with tables for cabaret-style learning or collaborative sessions.

The venue provides Wi-Fi and air conditioning throughout its hire rooms. Organisers can also request projectors, screens, speakers, microphones and flip charts to support presentations and training programmes. Refreshment options include tea and coffee stations, while lunch packages are available for delegates. The on-site café offers another convenient option for working lunches or informal meetings.

Outside, the centre has grassed grounds that can be used for picnic lunches, outdoor meetings and team activities. A large car park is available at the rear of the building, with additional parking arrangements when needed. With its range of room sizes, practical facilities and central Crawley location, The Charis Centre suits organisers planning training days, conferences, workshops, community gatherings and professional meetings.
