Venue Description

Couper Institute is a historic ‘B’ listed building, which is managed by Glasgow Life as a resource for the community. It has a range of rooms available for let and is a popular venue for meetings, classes, clubs, parties, dances and weddings.

Accessibility

There are significant accessibility limitations to Couper Institute, due to the building’s design and age. There is an access ramp at the front of the building and an internal buzzer to enable access and assistance from staff. If required, hall staff will quickly set up temporary ramps and assist with access to the level of the Main Hall and Auchincloss Room. The Craighead Suite, Lesser Hall and Rooms 1, 2, 3 and 4 are sited at first floor or basement level, meaning that these rooms are unsuited to wheelchair access. Due to these limitations, Glasgow Life encourages prearrangement where possible to enable best placing of lets with regard to access issues.
