The diary lives in a cupboard
One paper book, one building, and a committee taking turns to decode each other’s handwriting.
Hallory for village halls
Village hall booking software any trustee can use
The hall is the heart of the village, but the committee did not sign up to untangle a paper diary. Hallory takes bookings online, blocks clashes, and keeps the money side visible to everyone.

Sound familiar?
Committee turnover loses knowledge
When the booking secretary steps down, years of how-things-work walks out the door with them.
Deposits and payments on trust
Who paid, who still owes, and where the deposit went is a conversation, not a record.

A week at the village hall
Every booking sits in its own lane, colour-coded and readable at a glance. If two groups want the same space at overlapping times, Hallory blocks the clash before anyone can approve it.

Fig. 03 · How Hallory helps
Built for how village halls actually run
Public booking requests
Hirers request the hall through a simple online form. You see it, check it, and approve or decline in one tap.
Clear hire pricing per room
Set prices per room and per booking type once. Every hire is priced consistently, whoever is on duty.
Payments tracked to the penny
Cash, transfer or cheque: mark payments as they arrive, and anything still owed stays amber until it is settled.
Simple enough for any trustee
Plain English, big readable screens, no jargon. A new booking secretary is productive on day one.
The diary can retire now.
One calm place for every booking in the village
