Incredible room hire discounts for Fellows at 41 Portland Place
One of the benefits of having our own, dedicated headquarters at 41 Portland Place is the facilities we can offer to our Fellows. We have a dedicated and comfortable Fellows Room in the Jean Shanks Library on the ground floor which Fellows are welcome to use from 8am – 8pm, Monday – Friday. Please use it as a rest stop between meetings, or somewhere to catch up on work, or simply a place to chat to other Fellows. There is also a shower and changing room available to Fellows in the basement – please speak to reception on arrival.
Secure bicycle storage is located in one of the vaults at the front of the building – again just speak to reception.
Our headquarters at 41 Portland Place is a perfect venue for Fellows to hold meetings, seminars and events, with both modern and period rooms that are able to accommodate anything from 4 to 80 people. We always have dedicated packages available for Fellows, but would be happy to work with you on a bespoke package to suit your tastes and requirements.
