Our teams have been busy working away since the new year, on new initiatives including waste savings methodologies and resources for you and your trust.

We are delighted to be looking forward to April, our new contract year, where we will be launching a set of new super helpful resources to help guide you.

More news coming soon.

Our Culinary Team members Millie Morgan and Leanne Tuck are showing their support to International Womens Day on Sunday 8 March.  

This year’s theme, Give To Gain, underscores the impact of generosity, reciprocity, and collective action in driving gender equality. 

When individuals, organisations, and communities give – whether through time, resources, knowledge, advocacy, or support – they help create meaningful opportunities for women and girls to thrive. 

Giving isn’t a loss; it’s an investment that multiplies. By supporting women, we strengthen our workplaces, communities, and society. 

From challenging everyday bias to celebrating achievements and championing women focused initiatives, Give To Gain reminds us that progress is a shared effort.

Small actions, taken collectively, build a more equal and connected world. 

Ramadan Mubarak to those observing it this year.  

We extend our warmest wishes to you and your families for a peaceful, reflective, and meaningful month.  

May this period bring you and your loved ones blessings, and may you enjoy a joyful EidalFitr when it arrives.
