About our charges
Simple, clear guidance to help you use our services with confidence. Most services are free — and when costs apply, to cover essential costs so we can keep services running for everyone, we keep them as low as possible.
We want every visit to an OnFife venue to feel easy and welcoming. Most of what we offer is free, and any charges help us cover essential costs so we can keep services running for everyone.
