How in-house teams make venues more sustainable At 1 Wimpole Street, we’re passionate about creating memorable events while minimising our environmental footprint. A significant part of this commitment comes from our on-site AV team and in-house catering services. These offerings not only provide exceptional service but also help us ensure that every event is more sustainable.

On-Site AV Team: The Key to Sustainability

By keeping everything in-house, our AV team delivers a seamless experience while helping reduce carbon footprints and waste, contributing to a more sustainable event. Here’s how:

1. Less transportation, less emissions

When we manage all AV needs on-site, there’s no need for external AV companies to transport bulky equipment to and from the venue. This significantly cuts down on carbon emissions caused by vehicles traveling to and from the event.

2. Reduced packaging waste

Third-party AV providers often use excessive packaging for equipment, which adds to waste. By keeping it in-house, we can reuse and maintain our equipment, reducing packaging and waste over time.

3. Streamlined setup and breakdown

Our AV team is highly experienced in managing the technical setup efficiently and thoroughly understands the venues capabilities as they are onsite every week. This leads to quicker, more efficient operations, reducing energy consumption during these stages.

In-House Catering: Fresh, Local, and Sustainable

Our in-house catering service goes hand-in-hand with our sustainability efforts. We source ingredients locally where we can, reducing the carbon footprint associated with long-distance food transportation. By focusing on fresh, seasonal produce, we offer a delicious, catering experience that also supports local suppliers.

We also prioritise waste reduction by carefully managing portion sizes and sending our food waste off for anaerobic digestion, ensuring your event leaves a minimal environmental impact.

Why Choose a venue with in-house teams?

By offering on-site AV and in-house catering, we can reduce waste, energy consumption, and transportation-related emissions—all while maintaining the high standards our clients expect. With every detail managed under one roof, we not only provide an exceptional event experience but also support eco-friendly practices that make a difference.
