15Hatfields won the London 2012 Food Vision award for being the United Kingdom's "most sustainable conference and event venue." It's not just an organizer but a physical space that can fit small meetings and receptions but also bigger conferences. Their rooms are named after environment concepts such as "Renew," "Sustain" and "Air." These ideas reflect practically in the events. For instance, through recycling policies, the use of compostable fabrics, earth friendlier cutlery, and the catering company that they use, Eden, which offers ethical and local options.
Furthermore, 15Hatfields -- a social enterprise -- donates profits to Chartered Institute of Environmental Health, which is a London-based not-for-profit organization that was founded in 1883.
