Meet Hayley

TELL US ABOUT YOUR ROLE:
I co-ordinate room hire bookings at Blackfriars, which is really varied and can include anything from corporate events to fairs, parties and weddings. 

HOW LONG HAVE YOUR WORKED AT BLACKFRIARS?
I have been working at Blackfriars since the beginning of 2022.

WHAT DOES A TYPICAL WORKING DAY FOR HAYLEY LOOK LIKE?
I don’t think there is a typical day! I’m normally busy speaking with customers, giving tours of venues and taking room hire bookings.

WHAT HAS BEEN THE HIGHLIGHT FROM YOUR TIME AT BLACKFRIARS SO FAR?
The Wedding Experience Day we hosted back in May 22 was a great fun, Blackfriars looked beautiful dressed to its best with lots of local suppliers taking part.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE FEATURE OF THE PRIORY?
 My favourite space in the Priory has to be the Upper East Range. It has a great atmosphere with its high beamed ceilings whilst retaining a lovely cosy feel.

WHAT DO YOU ENJOY DOING OUTSIDE OF WORK?
I love spending time with my family and exploring the great outdoors. Long walks getting lost in the woods is one of my favourite pastimes

YOU’RE AT A WEDDING… WHAT SONG GETS YOU UP ON THE DANCEFLOOR?
Anything with a beat! I’m usually one of the first to hit the dancefloor!

IT’S A RELAXED SUNDAY AFTERNOON… WHAT FILM DO YOU POP ON?
 The Princess bride- my absolute favourite movie ever
