Corporate Hire

Bishopsgate Institute contains a range of spaces for corporate hire that can be adapted for your requirements. Each of the rooms in our Grade II* listed building has an individual history, and all are suited to conferences, meetings, and seminars. Your bookings include complimentary wifi for all delegates.

Host your conference in The Great Hall or hold a team away day in The Courtyard Room.

Why not add a memorable element to your day with our archives team? Our add-on packages include archive displays, workshops with world-class experts, and private tours once distancing measures have eased.

We are proud to partner with our recommended caterers who share our philosophy of giving back to the local community. Our caterers offer delicious dining options, all of which are sustainably sourced and creatively served.

Staying safe

The safety of our visitors and staff is our priority. Here’s what we’re doing to keep everyone safe. Our large, airy, well-ventilated rooms are suitable for social distancing meetings, but we have reduced the maximum capacities of each of our rooms too. Please talk to us if you’d like to know more.

#FROMTHE ARCHIVES

Married in 1950, Chris and Betty Birch have been involved in political, trade union, and LGBTQ+ activism for over 60 years. Sharing similar interests, they were both Communist Party Members and involved with organisations such as the Aid to Spanish Youth Committee. After the death of his friend, Mark Ashton, Chris became involved in forming the Mark Ashton Memorial Trust, which was created to raise money for individuals living with HIV. The archive includes the truncheon taken from the police by Mark Ashton, correspondence, personal scrapbooks, press cuttings, and various other papers relating to the couples activism.
