Our Sustainability Commitments

Over the last year, we have made a conscious effort to introduce a number of initiatives across our events department to ensure our impact on the environment is reduced to an absolute minimum. We are proud that, for the first time, the Museum of London now has 0% of waste going to landfill. We have reduced our printed material, increased our recycling rate to 52% and use only sustainable, reusable promotional material. Our green roofs on our Terrace Gallery, Boardroom and Garden, as well as our rainwater harvesting system are just a few ways we are implementing further sustainable practices across the business. And when it comes to cleaning Sustainability is also an incredibly important part of our onsite catering operation.
