Watershed Wedding Venue

Our Sustainability Commitments

Watershed’s environmental policy is applied across the entire organisation and its activities wherever practically possible, with a focus on: Energy consumption (electricity and gas): Watershed uses Julie’s Bicycle IG tools (via Energy Bank) to measure the environmental impact of its annual energy and water usage. The information is used to determine whether measures taken are effective in achieving the aim of minimising carbon emissions. Water: Watershed maintains efficient water management and ensures this is considered throughout our building management, and future plans. Food: Watershed has an ethical, sustainable approach to food. This means that ingredients sourced are fresh and locally produced. Where possible, our ingredients travel only a short distance – from plot to plate. This ethos both supports the local economy and minimises the environmental impact of our restaurant and conferencing offer. Service providers: Watershed actively seeks out local providers for its services. Travel: Watershed is conscious of the negative impact of transport on the environment and seeks to minimise the impact it has as an organisation. Office Management: Environmental considerations are a priority for Watershed when sourcing replacement or new office equipment and furnishings. Watershed endeavors to purchase items which are as environmentally friendly as possible from local suppliers. Recycling: Watershed is committed to minimising waste and recycling waste products wherever possible and pursuing circular solutions. Staff training: Watershed is committed to maintaining 65% of staff are Carbon Literacy Trained. Carbon Literacy Training is embedded into the onboarding process of new staff members, holding training sessions for new staff members every six months.
