The return and renewal of RTPI London headquarters

In 2021, the Board of Trustees agreed to make a significant investment into the RTPI’s London headquarters in Botolph Lane. Since then, we've been busy with renovations. The final phase of the programme has now been completed, and the RTPI’s HQ has officially re-opened.

We’re proud of the steps we’ve taken to make the Botolph Lane office more energy efficient – taking our efficiency rating up to a B – and more accessible for everyone.  

That’s why a new shopfront and a bigger lift car have been fitted to accommodate wheelchair users; double-glazed partitions around meeting rooms have been fitted to manage the acoustics and control noise within the working environments – particularly important for those with neurodivergent conditions; and high-contrast colours in the accessible toilets have been included to aid those with visual impairments.

What this means for members

While this project will provide an improved workspace for staff, the Institute is also creating a membership hub that will provide a ‘touch down’ space for members. This dedicated space allows RTPI members to take advantage of the newly refurbished office for collaboration and accessibility whenever you find yourself in central London.

Simply call the RTPI’s front desk or drop in next time you’re in London to book your space in Botolph Lane’s new membership hub.
