I am particularly proud of our soap recycling project in partnership with Clean the World - since we started midway through 2023, 455kg of individual soap bars from our guest rooms have been sent to Clean the World who sanitise them, grind them down, lab test them and form them into new bars that are delivered to Clean the World Programme worldwide, in addition 1,200 newly made soap bars have been distributed to those that need it most within the surrounding areas of our hotels.

There is little reason such initiatives would not also succeed across the pond, as such initiatives foster a culture of care and responsibility, aligning personal values with organisational goals. This is an engagement strategy Clean the World is committed to, hosting events each month designed to boost engagement among employees, between different departments, and with local communities. During ‘Random Acts of Kindness Week’ for example, employees were sent to volunteers at not-for-profits such as Second Harvest Food Bank and A Gift for Teaching, as a way of giving back.
