After our recent visit to Hawksmoor Seven Dials, we can confidently say: this is a venue that really gets it right.

A Dining Experience Worth Talking About

Nestled in a historic Covent Garden brewery, the Seven Dials restaurant offers a warm, atmospheric setting perfect for smaller corporate gatherings. During our visit, we sampled a selection of dishes that showcased exactly why Hawksmoor has earned its reputation.

We began with charcoal-roasted scallops, Old Spot ribs, and ash-baked beetroots, each beautifully balanced and packed with flavour. For the main event, we shared the Chateaubriand paired with bone marrow gravy and peppercorn sauce, accompanied by a spread of sides including beef dripping chips, macaroni cheese, creamed spinach and a vibrant heritage tomato salad. And yes, we finished strong. Their iconic sticky toffee pudding and a seasonal pineapple & mango pavlova were the perfect finale.

To top it off, we tried the refreshing Shaky Pete’s Ginger Brew, a cocktail that deserves its own round of applause.

Service That Sets the Standard

While the food was exceptional, it was the team who truly made the experience unforgettable. Every member of staff was warm, knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about what they do. Their recommendations were thoughtful, their enthusiasm infectious and their attention to detail flawless. It’s this level of care that transforms a great meal into a standout event.

With expectations rising, the industry is catching up fast. Managing dietary requirements is essential for delivering a professional, well-run event. When handled well, attendees feel included, cared for and safe. Without a clear process risks increase and, for some allergies or medical conditions, the consequences can be serious. 

A dietary events toolkit checklist has been created by the ABPCO Dietary Inclusion Members Group , to help support PCOs, venues and caterers communicate clearly and consistently with event organisers. 

The toolkit is based on real-world experience and designed to work in real event settings. The checklists support early conversations, build shared understanding and set realistic expectations from the start. Together, they make it easier to capture, share and act on the right information while reducing risk and simplifying dietary management. 

As the PCO checklist puts it, “delegate expectations around dietary requirements have evolved, and event processes need to keep pace”. 

Food has become something that’s not just a need to survive, it’s an emotional, cultural and often part of the identity of an event. If someone arrives at an event unsure whether they’ll be able to eat safely, or eat at all, it affects their entire experience. 

We’re seeing more attendees with: 

• Life-threatening allergies 

• Intolerances 

• Religious or cultural dietary observances 

• Lifestyle driven choices 

Health related needs (e.g., diabetes, pregnancy, weight loss medication considerations) 

We need to make sure that everybody feels included and that their requirements are accommodated when we plan any event. One of the clearest reminders from the PCO checklist is that vague information like “no fish/nuts, gluten” simply isn’t enough, because “it does not outline the severity”. That’s why detailed, early and accurate data collection is everything. 

Let’s talk about the serious end of the spectrum. Life-threatening allergies require: 

• Direct contact with the attendee 

• Understanding whether the allergy is ingestion only or airborne 

• Checking whether adrenaline/epi pens are in date 

• Creating a clear emergency plan with the venue 

Ensuring staff know exactly what’s in every dish 

The checklist even recommends treating adrenaline pen readiness like “a safety check, similar to fire extinguisher servicing”. Of course, the 14 major allergens must be declared by law, but the documents also remind us that allergens can appear “hidden in some foodstuffs, e.g. celery in stock powders; fish in wine; tree nuts in cereals”, which is why relying on assumptions is never enough. 

Dietary requirements can reflect: 

• Religious observances (Halal, Kosher, Jain, Ramadan fasting) 

• Cultural identity 

• Ethical choices (vegan, vegetarian) 

• Health needs (diabetes, coeliac disease) 

• Sustainability values 

The checklist highlights that cultural or religious diets are “rooted in tradition, community identity, or religious law”, whereas lifestyle choices are centred on “personal health, ethics, or environmental beliefs”. Both matter, but they’re not the same, and treating them with nuance is part of respectful event design.

The Managing Dietary Requirements at Events Toolkit:  

We’re delighted to share the Managing Dietary Requirements at Events Toolkit hosted on the Meet Cambridge website. 

🔗 https://www.meet-cambridge.com/events-services/sustainable-events-toolkit/equity-diversity-and-inclusion-edi-in-events/managing-dietary-requirements-at-events/ 

This resource is practical, thoughtful and created with real collaboration, including input from the diets working group. At a recent ABPCO Festival of Learning event, great effort and collaboration between the diets working group, PCO Sheer Edge, ABPCO Executive Director Matt Stalker and Nottingham Venues Operations and Catering teams worked collaboratively to support the dietary toolkit requirements. Melissa Sobo at Nottingham Venues summed up the experience beautifully: 

“Working with the diets group felt like everything coming full circle — we weren’t just identifying challenges; we were helping to remove them. The advice shared was there to empower organisers, not overwhelm them.” — Melissa Sobo, Nottingham Venues 

Adding to this, Anita Macdonald, Deputy Marketing Manager, Meet Cambridge and co-lead of the ABPCO Dietary Inclusion Members Group said:  

“Creating truly inclusive events isn’t the responsibility of one organisation or one supplier. It’s something we achieve together. When venues, organisers, caterers, and industry partners collaborate, we remove barriers and raise standards for everyone.” 

The venue/caterer checklists reinforce something we see every day: dietary inclusion is a team sport. 

Some standout recommendations include: 

• Ensuring all staff, including casuals, are trained to answer dietary questions confidently 

• Having a clearly identifiable dietary champion on site 

• Using QR codes for detailed ingredient lists 

• Offering tasting sessions during site visits 

• Using different coloured plates or dish shapes to avoid mix-ups 

• Keeping clear, documented communication between organisers, caterers, staff and other venue users 

We’re dedicated in supporting clients from the very first conversation, ensuring dietary needs are: 

• Captured clearly 

• Categorised correctly 

• Communicated early 

• Managed safely 

• Delivered with confidence 

We work closely with venues and caterers to make sure nothing slips through the cracks, from cross contamination risks to labelling clarity to emergency planning. When every guest can eat safely and happily, they feel more included and the whole event feels better. 

The toolkit is a living bank of resources. If you have ideas, comments, or suggestions for future themes, the team would love to hear from you and welcome: 

• Ideas 

• Feedback 

• Suggestions 

• Themes you’d like explored 

Drop Anita a line at anita@meet-cambridge.com. 

As a PCO who feels passionately about striking the right balance and ensuring everyone feels welcome, seen and included, Sheer Edge would welcome working with you on your next event and help you to implement this dietary toolkit as we did for ABPCO.

The post Eating Well, Feeling Included: Why Dietary Requirements Deserve a Front Row Seat in Event Planning  appeared first on Sheer Edge Events.

From the outset, the event delivered strongly on its purpose: “bringing members and the wider industry together for learning, networking and collaboration”. With over 200 attendees, exceptionally high engagement, and overwhelmingly positive feedback, the Festival once again demonstrated why it remains a key date in the association’s events calendar. 

A Highly Engaged Delegate Community 

Attendance and engagement were exceptional, with 208 delegates participating and app usage far exceeding industry benchmarks. The event achieved an impressive 82% login rate, demonstrating strong digital engagement and a real appetite for interaction and connection throughout the programme. 

Delegates responded particularly positively to the programme’s balance of learning, interaction, and practical takeaways. Workshops were repeatedly highlighted as a standout feature, with feedback noting that “delegates loved the choices” and that sessions generated “lots of positive chatter” across both days. 

A Warm Welcome and Exceptional Experience 

One of the clearest themes from the event was the strong sense of community and hospitality. Delegates overwhelmingly felt welcomed, with 75.7% strongly agreeing with this sentiment, a testament to the collaborative effort between ABPCO, Nottingham Venues, and the Sheer Edge team. 

The venue itself received excellent feedback, described internally as “AMAZING” and “more than accommodating”. Catering, accessibility, and sustainability credentials were also praised, with dietary inclusivity noted as a particular strength. 

The AV and technical delivery were another highlight, with the team receiving “nothing but the highest praise” for their responsiveness and ability to support last‑minute requirements smoothly and professionally. 

Collaboration at its Best 

For Sheer Edge, one of the greatest successes of this year’s Festival was the seamless collaboration between all partners involved. Clear roles, strong communication, and a shared commitment to excellence ensured a smooth delivery across both days. As noted in the debrief, “the collaborative approach between teams contributed significantly to seamless delivery and a strong on-site experience. 

We worked closely with ABPCO throughout the entire journey, from preregistration and speaker/exhibitor briefing calls to site visits and ongoing venue and end‑client communications. Our team also managed the full build, setup, and delivery of the event app on ABPCO’s behalf, ensuring every delegate had a seamless digital experience. 

In the spirit of ABPCO and Sheer Edge’s shared ethos of giving back, we invited students from Nottingham and Birmingham University College to join us on site. Offering them hands-on experience at an event of this scale was a privilege, and their enthusiasm added real value to the event delivery. 

One of the Event Support Student Volunteers commented “I was a volunteer event staff member at ABPCO and what an experience it was, the speakers were amazing and so insightful, as a final year student about to enter the events Industry, ABPCO was an incredible chance for me to expand my network and meet some Industry veterans. Working on the event gave me a newfound appreciation for events managers. The Sheer Edge Events team have truly mastered the ‘event chill’ skill. I really enjoyed working with them, being able to watch the team in action was so inspiring and beyond work, they’re incredible at what they do, and I really do hope I have the pleasure of working with them in the future!” 

Looking Ahead 

The ABPCO Festival of Learning 2026 not only celebrated the strength of the association events community, but also highlighted the power of thoughtful planning, meaningful content and exceptional partnership. We were thrilled to play a part in its success and look forward to supporting ABPCO, its membership and the association sector in the future, one thing is for certain this sector continues to evolve and innovate.

Their largest space, the Forest Suite, can host up to 320 delegates and can be divided into three smaller rooms for multi-format events. Natural daylight, built‑in AV, and screens across the room for both portrait and landscape layouts, along with adjacent breakout areas like the Ebony Lounge, make it ideal for conferences, exhibitions, and corporate dinners.

Whether supporting our client’s group check-ins, accommodating last‑minute requests, or ensuring the dining experience was spot on, the staff consistently went above and beyond. This aligns with the venue’s strong reputation for exceptional hospitality and customer care. They also have a full list of suppliers that they are able to liaise with on a client’s behalf, so anything that’s required, décor-wise, to extra AV. They even have a star-studded dancefloor on site that is readily available upon request.

At the core of its corporate offering is the purpose-built Knightley Court, a self-contained conference centre designed to deliver both flexibility and impact. Ideal for larger-scale events, this space features the impressive Knightley Suite, which can accommodate conferences, presentations and corporate gatherings in a spacious, well-equipped environment. With integrated AV facilities, adaptable layouts and natural light, it provides a professional yet comfortable setting for productive sessions. 

Knightley Court also includes a selection of smaller, versatile meeting rooms, perfect for breakout sessions, workshops, or more focused discussions. These spaces are complemented by a private lounge and bar area, encouraging informal networking and collaboration throughout the day. A unique addition is the on-site 29-seat cinema, offering a memorable alternative for presentations, screenings, or keynote moments that require something a little different. 

For corporate hospitality and private dining, the Cedars Restaurant provides an elegant and refined setting.

Purpose-built with creativity and adaptability in mind, The Box introduces a striking contemporary venue that offers event organisers a true blank canvas. With around 900 square metres of open event space, the venue has the capacity to host over 400 delegates, making it an ideal setting for conferences, exhibitions, networking events and experiential event formats that require room to think big. 

What makes The Box particularly appealing is its flexibility. The space has been designed so organisers can shape it entirely around their event concept, whether that’s a large plenary session, an immersive brand experience, an exhibition-led conference or a dynamic networking environment. The modern design, clean lines and expansive layout allow for a wide range of room configurations, while large windows bring in natural daylight to create a bright and energising atmosphere for delegates. 

The venue has also been thoughtfully positioned within the wider resort to maximise event potential. The Box can operate as a standalone venue or work seamlessly alongside the resort’s existing conference facilities, giving planners the ability to expand their event footprint if required. For example, it could act as a dedicated exhibition or networking hub while conference sessions take place in neighbouring spaces. 

While The Box may be the newest addition, it sits within the established event infrastructure of Wyboston Lakes Resort, a well-known destination for meetings, training and conferences. Set within 380 acres of lakeside countryside, the resort provides a fully integrated event environment where delegates can stay, meet and relax all in one location. 

Alongside The Box, the resort offers a wide variety of meeting spaces across its three dedicated venues: the Woodlands Event Centre, The Willows Training Centre and the Waterfront Hotel. Together these provide more than 50 meeting and event spaces, as well as over 400 bedrooms, allowing organisers to host anything from small strategy sessions to large multi-day conferences. 

With the introduction of The Box, Wyboston Lakes Resort has added a fresh and highly adaptable venue to its already impressive portfolio. For event planners looking to create something impactful, with space for creativity, collaboration and scale, this exciting new venue is certainly one to watch. 

If you’d like to find out more about Wyboston Lakes or enquire about hosting your next event in one of their spaces, get in touch with us today and we’d be more than happy to help.  Let the Sheer Edge team start shaping an event that’s as memorable as the setting.

The post Venue Spotlight: The Box at Wyboston Lakes Resort – Where Big Ideas Take Centre Stage appeared first on Sheer Edge Events.

If you work in events, you’ll know this already: we create incredible moments. We bring people together, spark ideas, build brands, launch products, and celebrate milestones. But we also generate waste. A lot of it. That’s the part of the story we can’t afford to ignore anymore. 

Sustainability in events isn’t a ‘nice to have’ or a tick-box exercise for a credentials slide, it’s a responsibility. Every conference, exhibition, awards dinner and brand activation has a footprint, from the venue energy use to delegate travel, catering, set builds and the inevitable lanyards that somehow multiply overnight. 

Why does it matter now more than ever? Because expectations have shifted. Not only are clients are asking tougher questions, but delegates are also more conscious. Teams want to work with suppliers who share their values. Frankly, the climate conversation isn’t abstract anymore. Extreme weather, supply chain disruption and rising costs are impacting our industry directly. Being greener isn’t just about reputation; it’s about resilience. 

The good news? Events are brilliantly adaptable. With a bit of thought at the planning stage, you can significantly reduce your environmental impact without compromising experience. 

Start with the venue.  

This is one of the biggest levers you have. Look for spaces with strong environmental policies, renewable energy sources, waste management systems and clear sustainability credentials. Ask about their energy usage, food sourcing, recycling rates and water management. A good venue will be proud to talk about it. Location matters too, somewhere well connected by public transport will instantly reduce the reliance on cars. 

Then there’s travel.  

For many events, this is the single largest contributor to carbon emissions. Encourage delegates to travel by train where possible. In the UK and across much of Europe, rail can often rival air travel in terms of on-time performance when you factor in airport queues and transfers. If flights are unavoidable, suggest direct routes over connecting flights, as take-off and landing are the most carbon-intensive parts of a journey. Promote car sharing for regional events and provide clear public transport guidance in pre-event communications. Even small nudges in your joining instructions can shift behaviour. 

While we’re talking comms, ditch the paper wherever you can. Printed agendas, maps and tickets add up quickly. Use event apps or mobile-friendly itineraries instead. QR codes for registration, digital signage and online feedback forms are now standard practice and delegates expect them. If you do need to print, choose recycled stock and vegetable-based inks and only produce what’s genuinely necessary. 

Catering is another big opportunity.  

Work with caterers who prioritise seasonal, locally sourced produce. Reducing meat and dairy, even slightly, can have a significant environmental benefit. You don’t have to make an event fully plant-based (unless that fits your audience), but offering appealing vegetarian and vegan options as the default rather than the alternative is a subtle but effective shift. Be proactive about portion sizes and surplus food, for example, can it be donated? Is there a clear plan to minimise waste? 

When it comes to production, think beyond the ‘wow’ moment. Reusable modular staging, hired furniture and rented décor will always be preferable to single-use builds. Avoid bespoke items that are destined for a skip the following morning. If you’re producing graphics, consider recyclable materials or fabric options that can be repurposed. Ask your production partners about their own sustainability practices; this is a collaborative effort. 

Merchandise is another area worth scrutinising.  

We’ve all seen the branded giveaways that never leave the hotel room. Instead of defaulting to physical swag, ask whether it’s necessary at all. If it is, focus on quality over quantity, something useful, durable and responsibly sourced. Or consider digital alternatives: downloadable resources, exclusive content or post-event access to recordings. 

Waste management on the day needs proper planning. Clearly labelled recycling points, food waste bins and back-of-house sorting systems make a real difference. Brief your event staff and volunteers so they can guide delegates. It sounds simple, but without visible infrastructure and clear messaging, even the most well-intentioned audience will default to the nearest bin. 

It’s also worth measuring what you’re doing.  

Carbon calculators and post-event sustainability reports are becoming more accessible and more expected. Tracking your impact helps you identify where the biggest wins are and gives clients tangible data to report back to their stakeholders. Transparency builds trust, even if you’re not perfect yet. 

That’s the key point:  

Perfection isn’t the goal, progress is.  

No event will ever have zero impact. The aim is to make conscious choices at every stage and to keep improving. Sometimes that means having slightly tougher conversations with clients about budgets, timelines or design ambitions. Often, sustainable choices are cost-effective in the long run, such as reduced print, less waste, and smarter logistics, but even when they’re not, they’re part of responsible planning. 

There’s also a reputational advantage to doing this properly. Brands that take sustainability seriously attract like-minded partners and audiences. They future-proof themselves against tightening regulations and shifting consumer expectations. In an industry built on creativity, leading on sustainability is an opportunity to innovate rather than restrict. 

We believe brilliant and responsible events should be one and the same thing. It’s about asking better questions at the start, choosing partners carefully and being honest about the impact of our decisions. Every delegate journey, every menu choice, every printed page contributes to a much bigger picture. 

We’re in the business of creating experiences. Making sure those experiences don’t cost the earth feels like a fairly important place to start.

Set within 120 acres of Surrey parkland, this stunning country house hotel offers a peaceful retreat from the everyday, while still being highly accessible, making it an excellent choice for conferences, leadership offsites, strategy days and client-facing events. 

Designed with Corporate Events in Mind 

Pennyhill Park offers an impressive range of 18 meeting and event spaces, allowing events to be tailored precisely to your objectives. From larger suites suitable for conferences and presentations to elegant mid-sized rooms and intimate boardrooms ideal for senior leadership sessions, the venue offers real flexibility. 

Many of the spaces benefit from natural daylight, beautiful views and period features, creating an inspiring environment that feels a world away from traditional conference rooms. Rooms such as Parkview even include private balconies overlooking the grounds, perfect for relaxed breakout moments or informal networking. 

Why Pennyhill Park Feels Extra Special  

What truly elevates Pennyhill Park as a corporate venue is the experience surrounding the meeting agenda. 

Exceptional hospitality, outstanding food (including Michelin-starred dining options) and a world-class spa mean delegates can balance productivity with wellbeing. For multi-day events, this creates space for teams to reconnect, reflect and recharge, something we’re seeing more clients prioritise. 

Its location strikes that ideal balance too. Close enough to London and major transport routes for convenience yet secluded enough to feel like a genuine escape.

The post Venue Spotlight: Pennyhill Park, an Exclusive venue combining effortless luxury, flexibility and sense of occasion appeared first on Sheer Edge Events.

Ten years of ideas, partnerships, problem-solving, early mornings, late nights and moments that reminded us exactly why we do what we do. To mark the occasion, we asked the team to reflect on 10 moments that sum up our journey so far. What came back was a reminder that Sheer Edge has always been about more than events alone.

It’s about people, relationships, resilience and doing things the right way.

Celebrating Excellence (and being recognised for it)

One of our proudest early milestones was winning the Customer Excellence Award at the Nachural Entrepreneur Awards in 2019. It meant a great deal to us because it recognised something we’ve always cared deeply about, delivering thoughtful, dependable support and putting our clients at the heart of everything we do.

That commitment carried us through one of the most challenging periods the events industry has ever faced.

Standing with Clients Through Uncertainty

When the pandemic turned the world and our industry upside down, we were proud to support many of our UK and US clients as they navigated completely new territory. From reimagining conferences as virtual experiences to finding creative ways to keep people connected, those months were demanding, emotional and, at times, daunting, but they reinforced the trust we have built with our clients over the years.

It was a powerful reminder that events are about connection, whether in a room together or across screens.

Sharing Ideas and Giving Back

The creation of our Inside Edge magazine has been another highlight. It gave us a platform to share ideas, inspiration and insights from across the events and hospitality world and to celebrate the creativity that keeps our industry moving forward.

Giving back matters to us too. Supporting local community projects and committing to environmental responsibility through our Green Pledge, including planting nine trees every year, reflects our belief that businesses should play a positive role beyond their day-to-day work.

A Team We’re Proud Of

Sheer Edge wouldn’t be what it is without its people. We’re incredibly proud to offer flexible working and to have built a team that supports one another, balances busy lives, and brings warmth and care to everything they do. Being a great place to work isn’t a badge we claim lightly!

Small Business, Big Moments

Over the years, we’ve been honoured to be recognised as part of the Theo Paphitis #SBS Network, to be named a Small Business Sunday winner and, most recently, to be included in the Small Business Saturday #SmallBiz100. Attending events at the House of Lords and 11 Downing Street as part of this initiative was a genuine pinch-me moment and a celebration of what small businesses can achieve.

That recognition continued with winning the Enterprise Award at the NNBN Awards 2025. That was a moment that felt like a full-circle celebration of resilience, growth and consistency.

Ten Years of Trust

Above all else, what we’re most proud of is ten years of supporting loyal clients. From corporate meetings and conferences to once-in-a-lifetime experiences, securing hospitality at the Formula 1 British Grand Prix, Super Bowl events, and even U2 at the Sphere in Las Vegas, we feel incredibly lucky to be trusted with such important moments.

That trust, and our exceptionally high client retention, means everything to us.

Looking Ahead

Ten years in, we’re still excited. Still curious. Still committed to doing things thoughtfully and collaboratively. Thank you to everyone who has been part of the Sheer Edge story so far, our clients, partners, community and team.

Here’s to the next chapter, and to many more moments worth celebrating.
