How they use us

What does Livv Housing Group use the Maggie O'Neill Centre for?

  • Aspiring leaders training, for people growing into leadership roles.
  • Meeting space for different departments, as and when they need it.
  • Company-wide training, run over weeks and months.
  • A backup venue when the conference rooms at their own office are booked out.
The backup room

Why use a venue when you have your own meeting rooms?

Even with conference rooms of your own, there are weeks when everything's booked. With a venue you already know, a meeting can move here without anyone learning a new building or a new way of booking, and parking is free when they arrive.

14 years on

What do 14 years of bookings look like?

Fourteen years is a lot of training days. Programmes have come and gone and teams have changed, and the bookings have kept coming, from programmes that run for months to a single meeting that needed a room.

Whatever Livv needs, we're here for all of it.
