The events industry has witnessed a significant transformation in recent years due to the pandemic driving demand for more virtual and hybrid events. As the world continues to navigate the new normal, our venues in Nottingham have risen to the challenge by embracing innovative technologies and adapting our offerings to accommodate virtual and hybrid event formats. Join us as we explore how Nottingham Venues have evolved to meet the demands of the ever-changing event landscape. What is a hybrid event and the importance of them? A hybrid or virtual event blends both in-person and virtual participation, allowing attendees to join physically at a venue or remotely via digital platforms. This format combines the energy of live events with the accessibility of virtual attendance, creating an inclusive and flexible experience for all involved. This accessibility is key to improving attendance rates by removing barriers such as geography, cost, and time. Benefits of hybrid events Better attendance Hybrid formats significantly increase attendance by removing barriers related to travel, time, and cost. This accessibility invites a wider, more diverse audience — whether they’re across the city or across the world. Whether it's a busy executive or an international client, hybrid events allow them to join without the traditional limitations of in-person-only formats. Lower carbon footprint By reducing travel needs, hybrid events contribute to sustainability goals, cutting down greenhouse gas emissions and promoting greener event practices. Nottingham Venues supports this with sustainable meeting initiatives like the ‘Meetings for Change’ programme.

When I graduated, I went to London and worked for Stakis St. Ermins which was then bought out by Hilton. In many ways my career has gone full circle. After working at various other groups, including Marriot and Queens Moat House Hotels and a 10-year sabbatical into outsourced housekeeping, I then joined the team at Stoke on Trent Best Western.

We are so pleased they have achieved the ECOsmart Silver accreditation. ‘An eco-approach is comprehensively embedded in the operations and fabric of the buildings’ with features as diverse as LED lighting, elimination of palm oil, use of recycled ocean plastic in promotional items, using green spaces to encourage biodiversity as well as paying particular attention to looking after the well-being... --- - Published: 2022-11-14 - Modified: 2025-06-17 - URL: https://nottinghamvenues.com/blog/were-proud-be-flying-flag-real-living-wage/ - Categories: Living wage, People, Recruiting This week is Living Wage Week and we are proud to say that we are one of a growing number of businesses across the UK and Nottinghamshire to have received full certification from the Living Wage Foundation. This week is Real Living Wage Week and we are proud to say that we are one of a growing number of businesses across the UK and Nottinghamshire to have received full certification from the Living Wage Foundation. We got the official certification last month but we’ve actually been committed to the “Real Living Wage” ever since we relaunched as Nottingham Venues earlier this summer. Why? Simple. We believe that all of our staff deserve a real living wage which meets everyday needs. Back in April 2016, the government introduced a higher minimum wage rate for all staff over 25 years of age inspired by the Real Living Wage campaign – even calling it the ‘national living wage’. However, this wage is not calculated according to what employees and their families need to live. The real Living Wage rates are higher because they are independently-calculated based on what people need to get by. That’s why the Foundation encourages all employers that can afford to do so to ensure their employees earn a wage that meets the costs of living, not just the government minimum. Here’s what two of our team members, Magda and Ashie have to say about it; Magda, who works in housekeeping said: ‘I don’t think the “REAL:” living wage is something that a lot of people have heard of to be honest but I do think that it is a great idea and one that I’d hope to see more employers adopt, especially in hospitality. ‘Working here... --- - Published: 2022-10-18 - Modified: 2025-06-26 - URL: https://nottinghamvenues.com/blog/sustainable-growth-our-green-credentials-are-recognised-regional-awards/ - Categories: Award News We are delighted to reveal that we have just been crowned as the winners of the Sustainability Award at the annual BusinessDesk.com “Masters Awards”, here in the East Midlands! With well over 100 entries received, it is great to have been recognised in a category that many in our industry are perhaps not traditionally associated with. The team joined 300 business leaders from across the region, having been shortlisted alongside some fantastic local businesses and organisations; Colton Packaging, Hockley Developments, Light Science Technologies and Linwood Raker. Speaking to the assembled guests, magazine editor Sam Metcalf praised all of the finalists and winners, noting; “In an extremely tough year for East Midlands businesses, all our shortlisted and winning companies tonight should be extremely proud. “The strength in depth of the region’s businesses was reflected in over 100 companies entering the awards – and a record attendance. We thank each and every one of them for their support over the last 12 months. ” It has indeed been a challenging 12 months for so many businesses and we have had to work incredibly hard, especially during our transitional phase to Nottingham Venues, to maintain our ambitious plans for sustainable futures and growth across our venues. However, whatever the challenges may be, we have always placed this at the heart of our offering and we are all excited to be playing our own small part in doing our bit for our guests, our people and of course, our planet.

Nottingham Venues has appointed Suzie Adams as its new HR director. The organisation brings meetings, events, hotel stays and a collection of venues across the University of Nottingham’s campuses under one brand, employing almost 250 people. Adams brings a wealth of experience to her new role following a career with some of the world’s largest cruise line companies, including the Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection. Tom Waldron-Lynch, general manager at Nottingham Venues, said: “We are on a journey of growth and independence where we talk about being ‘One Destination with Endless Possibilities. ’ A major part of that journey requires the best possible talent to join us as we strive to lead the field in our offering to guests and employees. “Attracting someone of the calibre of Suzie is a big part of that, as she has incredible experience in both moulding and creating outstanding career experiences in the hospitality industry. We know that we have a superb guest experience across our venues and we want to create that same experience for our staff. Suzie will be invaluable in doing just that. ” Adams added: “This is a wonderful opportunity to come into an organisation that is in a transitional phase from its previous corporate structure to a more independent approach. We all know that the pandemic presented the hospitality industry with a wide-ranging set of challenges and staffing is certainly one of them and remains so. “However, here at Nottingham Venues we have a chance to create something truly special and... --- - Published: 2022-08-10 - Modified: 2025-06-26 - URL: https://nottinghamvenues.com/blog/double-delight-we-make-two-awards-shortlists-fortnight/ - Categories: Award News Typically the awards season runs from November to February but in the business world, it seems that summer is staking a c We just heard that we have been shortlisted for TheBusinessDesk annual Masters Awards for the East Midlands region and we cannot wait to join the team and our fellow finalists at their dinner in October. This fabulous news comes on the back of another high profile event that we attended earlier this month, when the East Midlands Chamber of Commerce team invited us to attend their annual President’s Summer Celebration, which included the announcement of the finalists for the Nottinghamshire Business Awards. Our team has been nominated for the Excellence in Collaboration category, which aims to recognise and celebrate successful business partnerships where organisations have collaborated on a project with successful outcomes for those involved. It is our work with the University of Nottingham that is in the spotlight here, as we worked together to create a bold new vision for our business after a decade as part of the De Vere group. Whilst looking back fondly on that time, we are all now firmly focused on the future of our brand and our offering as a venue and a major part of that is our commitment to sustainability. Indeed, that is what the BusinessDesk judging panel have spotted too, as it is against that crucial criteria that we will be judged ahead of the grand final in the autumn. So there we have it, the past, present and the future all rolled into one or even two major moments of recognition from some highly respected organisations.

The weather wasn’t ideal but didn’t detract from what was a great event. As you mentioned we Welsh are used to the rain - don’t think the team from the Caymen Islands knew how to deal with it in the same way. The accommodation was terrific for us at the tournament.

The ops team ensured the space was always clean and tidy and were always around to deal with any furniture moves etc. There were practically no queues at lunch so that was managed perfectly. The hotel front desk staff were also really helpful. There seemed to be a few names on our list, missing on their system but it was quickly rectified.

Our daughter got married at the walled garden and so we chose to stay nearby the night before and the night of the wedding. The orchard hotel put by 25crooms for us at a good rate. They did however forget take a note of one of the rooms needed patio doors for a dog to be able to get put quickly. The staff were able to overcome this on the second night, but it was an oversight never the less. We also booked the executive suite for the wedding party to get ready in. Nigel was fantastic and made sure we had all we needed, including breakfast items, tea and coffee. He provided his mobile number to use if needed. The wedding was fantastic and the staff at the orchard hotel went a long way to making the day run smoothly. --- - Published: 2024-09-12 - Modified: 2024-09-12 - URL: https://nottinghamvenues.com/testimonial/bill-divall/ The hotel is exceptional value for money.
