Excellence in Environmental Sustainability Award win

Keele University Events and Conferencing attended the Academic Venue Solutions Awards on Thursday 7th December, winning the ‘Excellence in Environmental Sustainability Award.’

Earlier in the year, the venue was awarded the Green Meetings Gold Accreditation for their commitment to sustainability within the business.  An integral part of their sustainability commitment is their engagement with suppliers to understand their sustainability commitments and how these impacted on the events and conferencing business. Recently launching their Green Delegate Packages with the ability to calculate the carbon used to run events, offering carbon neutral options and partnering with clients to meet their sustainable goals, this is just one of the many initiatives the team have implemented.

Within the team there is a focus group linking events and conferencing with the University Sustainability team to continue to work on the Universities’ objective to achieve Carbon Neutral Goals for 2030.

Conference and Event planners looking to host events in Staffordshire can be confident that choosing Keele University Events and Conferencing, they are working with a team of hospitality professionals delivering green events.
