How can you negotiate with a venue to ensure adequate event space?
Always ensure you provide a clear and accurate RFP to the venues ensuring you provide as much information as possible. We utilise a template each time which ensures that we do not miss critical information. However, as needs change in the scope from your client, it is vital to update the brief and keep your venues in the loop as situations change. Events are not static and being agile is important, but in order to ensure your needs are met to allow for new space needs, open communication is key.

Since March 2015, we have donated 3,600 hours of time turning a 1,500m2 of fly-tipped wasteland into a vibrant community garden providing a full range of wildlife habitats. We have planted over 100 fruit trees & bushes, plus decorative climbers, 2 flower beds, 8 raised vegetable & herb beds & a rose bed. With over 60 varieties of fruit & an eco-park area, the aim is to bring ‘a taste of the countryside to town’, providing a leisure and educational resource in an urban area. To encourage community events we have built a brick barbecue, complete with pergola. It even has free range chickens & turkeys to engender a rural feel. -
