Property Week's Student Accommodation Conference and Awards is dedicated to embedding sustainability into every aspect of our event. Take a look at our sustainable policy here and check out below to see how we are making a conscious effort to protect the planet for future generations!

VENUE

This year's Student Accommodation Conference & Awards will be hosted at the iconic Wembley Stadium in London. As one of the most renowned and historic stadiums globally, known for hosting major sporting events, concerts, and exhibitions, this exciting new venue will add grandeur to our conference and awards ceremony.

Since its opening in 2007, Wembley Stadium has remained committed to the highest standards of sustainability, starting with the Live Earth concert in July of that year, which raised awareness about climate change. Their efforts focus on several key areas, including energy and climate action, waste management, water conservation, sustainable transport, charity and community engagement, transparency and communication, and ethical procurement. Through these initiatives, Wembley Stadium continues to lead in promoting environmental responsibility and community support.

COLLABORATING

WITH TREEAPP

We’re proud to plant trees in Haiti with Treeapp, a leading global tree planting organisation operating sites across the world. With a dedication to reforest our planet, their work spans across 4 continents, having reforestation projects across 15+ countries with a specific focus on countries where they’re most needed.

We are planting trees across Haiti to support reforestation and grow nutritious fruits. The Haiti Reforestation Project promotes agroforestry to protect watersheds and improve food security. Local farmers are trained to manage tree nurseries and forests, ensuring sustainable practices replace harmful slash-and-burn methods. Charcoal use is reduced through solar and dry wood stoves. The project plants 22 tree species, boosting fruit and nut production, improving soil fertility, and preventing erosion. These forests also act as carbon sinks, helping combat climate change.
