Environmental sustainability
Award-winning sustainable facilities.
We are a member of the Green Impact Scheme run by the University of Oxford and the National Union of Students, which involves staff, students and faculty collaboratively improving sustainability performance. In 2024 we were presented with a Beyond Gold award, the best standard possible.
In keeping with our sustainability objectives, all event organisers are provided with our bespoke Sustainable Conferencing and Events Guide, to help enhance the environmental credentials on your event.
We no longer provide delegate stationery and offer water refill stations throughout the buildings and our Egrove Park venue is ISO 14001 certified, meaning we uphold the highest standards of environmental protection at the site.
