The hall has been utilized for various purposes over the years. In the late 1970s, it provided overnight accommodation to a large group of marchers who walked from Scotland to bring attention to the issue of rising unemployment. Additionally, the hall had the honor of hosting the first-ever International Panjabi Conference in 1980, which included a display of fine arts and books. This conference also played a significant role in introducing the teaching of Punjabi in schools throughout Britain.
