Independently owned Buckinghamshire country hotel, Horwood House, has teamed up with national homeless charity Crisis, and upcycling company Recoup, to transform an unused, syndicate break-out space into a creative and crafted coffee lounge for delegates, whilst also giving back to communities.
The Crisis Charity Coffee Lounge (120sqm) has been brought to life by a team of Crisis volunteers and members led by Recoup Founders, Tom Marsh and Ben Lunt. It has been transformed to reflect the horticultural surroundings and history of the hotel, with reclaimed furniture carefully restored to its former glory – and in some cases repurposed – to create unique pieces such as wall panels made from antique French headboards, cast-iron garden gates and dried flowers pressed into picture frames. The revived space is located beneath the Cook Suite and between six syndicate meeting rooms, with its own private entrance to the main hotel, making it the perfect spot to enjoy a coffee whilst admiring the wonderful works of Recoup during your meeting breaks.
Horwood House is known for its multiple meeting and event spaces and sees 4000 delegates passing through on average per month. Working closely with Crisis and their coffee partner Volcano Coffee Works*, the hotel will be continuing their support with the charity by purchasing coffee beans to fuel delegates in the lounge with 15% of all Volcano coffee purchases made by the hotel going straight to Crisis. Delegates will also be encouraged to support the cause by scanning the QR donation codes on the tables in the lounge. The hotel will be supporting further by donating 5% of revenue from all contracted conference and corporate event bookings taking place in January, February and March 2023. Terms and
conditions will apply**
