Environmental Policy
The King's Fund is fully committed to reducing its impact on the environment and as such No.11 Cavendish Square has adopted the following approach across all events:-
The Venue
- We have an Environmental Impact Group which reviews our environmental performance
- The venue is accessible to all
- There is disabled parking close by
Transportation
- The venue is well located for public transport
- The venue has a cycle storage facility available on site
- The options for sustainable public transport are well publicised on event material and our website
Waste Management
- The venue does not use disposable cups, crockery, glassware or utensils
- Wherever possible signage and displays are reused.
- The venue encourages all suppliers to minimise their packaging and remove it from site
- The venue operates a water purification system on site to eliminate unnecessary water bottle transportation
- Biodegradable packaging is used in our Café
More generally we
- Recycle plastics, paper, cardboard, print cartridges, light bulbs, obsolete furniture and IT equipment
- Provide recycling collection points throughout the building
- Use low energy light bulbs wherever possible
- Only use energy rated equipment
- Print double sided and use recycled paper for photocopying
- Turn off lighting and air conditioning when rooms are not in use
- Source furniture and equipment from sustainable sources
