Community Policy Statement:
Purchasing -Whilst ensuring that quality of our product or is not compromised, we aim to purchase and promote produce from the local area. Wherever possible, we pay our suppliers within the credit terms they request.
Employment - The hotel recognizes the importance of recruiting local people understanding that the majority of wages will therefore be spent locally, providing secondary economic benefit to other businesses in the community. Additionally, it recognizes the long-term importance of local residents staying within the community, rather than having to seek employment elsewhere.
Donations and Charity -It is our policy to donate, where ever possible items such as furniture or linen which are no longer suitable for use within the hotel. We will offer these items to local organisations that may benefit from them. The hotel will also carefully consider how it may help the local community by the provision of in-kind support, such as protection and promotion of local traditions of points of interest, sponsorship of local groups, provision of meeting space at subsidised or no costs, or advertising space for local businesses.
