Nancy Rothwell and Engineering B Buildings

As an Events Manager I am always very happy when a client confirms an event at one of your venues; the last few events have been absolutely perfect!The food, the service, the AV, everything was absolutely spot on! The lunches were some of the best I've had at a venue in a long time! Everything was 100% to schedule, which is important for an event for 350+ delegates.Amethyst Events for the British Association for Psychopharmacology Conference
