Community Cinema Panel

We love to screen films at the Hall and we need help deciding which films to show!

Our volunteer community cinema panel brings together Stretford residents with a wide variety of knowledge and interest. You don’t need to be a film buff, just have an interest in what we choose for our monthly film showings. Our panel helps plan a cinema programme which suits our local community.

The panel is virtual, led by our Bookings and Events Manager Joanna Jones who will communicate with you by email. You will use online polling to vote on suggestions for screenings at the hall.

Please note that cost is a factor in the films we screen. Sometimes the licence fee is too big for the Hall, but it may be possible for us to apply for grant funding to help us manage the cost.

Age 18+.
