A formal hall dinner with speeches. Traditional in form, better than usual in execution.
Two hundred and forty in hall for a formal dinner marking the college's anniversary, with three speeches between courses.
The room is listed, so nothing may be fixed to walls, floors or panelling. Free-standing only.
Service must be silent during speeches — a detail most caterers underestimate.
Each role opens the supplier list with this brief's filters already applied — the service, within 25 miles of City Centre, and free on 19 September.
Fundraising dinner with an auction. Every pound spent has to be defensible to trustees.
