The Work of the National Churches Trust
Supporting the UK’s Churches
Churches have stood at the heart of UK communities for centuries. Whether they are used for worship, quiet reflection, community support services, or as places to explore, churches are a priceless part of the nation’s heritage and social fabric.
The National Churches Trust is dedicated to ensuring that church buildings across the UK are well maintained, open to everyone, sustainable, and valued. Working in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, the charity supports churches of all Christian denominations—helping them not just survive, but thrive.

Here is how the National Churches Trust helps!
How We Help
Through a combination of grant programmes, training opportunities, and advocacy, the National Churches Trust provides vital support to churches across the country. From urgent repairs to enabling community-focused improvements, our work ensures that these historic buildings continue to serve local people now and in the future.
As an independently funded charity, we rely on the generosity of individuals, organisations, and partners like Hallmaster to carry out this important work.
Preserving Buildings, Strengthening Communities
Maintaining the fabric of church buildings is about more than bricks and mortar—it’s about safeguarding the spaces that serve as lifelines to many communities. When a church is well cared for, it can offer a warm welcome to everyone, support local initiatives, and host a wide range of events and services.
One practical way more and more churches are supporting their sustainability is by embracing technology. For example, introducing an online booking system for your church makes it easy for community groups, event organisers, and visitors to hire church spaces—generating vital income that can be reinvested in repairs, upkeep, and expanding community services. By opening their doors in new ways, churches can continue to be places of gathering, hope, and support for generations to come.

Why Use a Booking System for a Church Hall?
Churches and church halls already host a multitude of different kinds of events. Aside from the usual church services, the unique space and various facilities that are available in church halls make them perfect venues for a variety of events. This often includes regular activities for groups such as nurseries, local meetings, charity events, and many more. The fact that churches are traditionally at the centre of a town or village also helps explain why they are often the social heart of a community, as well as the literal heart of one.
For these reasons, it means that above all, a church hall must be flexible in its approach to organisation and bookings. However, it is also true that churches are the most common users of old-fashioned and outdated booking systems, such as pen-and-paper diaries and calendars. As with all other kinds of venues, it is vital for church halls to modernise their approach to bookings. Powerful but intuitive booking software such as Hallmaster is the answer to this!
We are now pleased to be one of the main sponsors of Village Halls Week.
Church Hall Booking System
No matter the event or the venue, businesses and establishments of all kinds are finding ways of widening their pools of clients. With these changes comes the increasing need to improve and optimise their workflows – the most important being their booking systems. This is equally as true for churches and church halls as it is for any other venue.
Why Hallmaster is the Right booking Software for your Church Hall
At Hallmaster, we have used our vast experience in web design for businesses stretching back over two decades and created a truly transformative bookings solution.
The secret to why Hallmaster can help so many venues is in our commitment to providing booking software that is simple to use and intuitive to learn. Behind that simplicity, however, is a huge array of powerful tools and features, allowing venues to customize and shape their bookings system to fit their venue and clientele.
Some of these features include support for multi-room venues on the one account, invoicing tools built-in, and social media integration available at the click of a button, making venue promotion easier than ever.
But it all starts with the brilliant interface. The Hallmaster calendar can be embedded directly into a venue’s webpage and allows everyone involved to view pre-existing bookings, find free dates, and schedule a booking, all in one place. This has helped eliminate double-bookings for thousands of venues already!
Church halls have been at the centre of communities for generations. Hallmaster can help transform your church hall booking system and make it ready for the next generation.
