EJ Ward Paddington Community Centre is a heritage building with separate meeting and activity rooms rather than a single large function hall. The upstairs main room seats up to 30, the dining room 15, and small offices and meeting rooms host two to four people. Hirers can use shared lounge, courtyard and kitchen amenities, but those common areas cannot be exclusively booked. A lift and accessible toilets support access between levels. Council does not permit children's parties for under-13s or youth parties for under-25s; bookings are subject to insurance and other conditions.
