Somerston commits to green initiativesSomerston has made a commitment to reducing its environmental impact by launching its official 'Environment Policy'. With a dedicated working party overseeing the many initiatives throughout both the corporate offices and hotels, Somerston aims to actively encourage all of our teams and colleagues to take an environmentally friendly approach to business.To celebrate our renewed commitment to green issues every Somerston hotel and office will be holding a Let's Go Green Day on Friday 28th of August 2009. Hotels will be challenged with running environmentally events and activities to encourage our teams to embrace green issues. We're also inviting individuals to make their own pledges for the day which can you can see by clicking here Express by Holiday Inn Derby Pride Park celebrates 10th birthdayAfter a decade of welcoming guests the Express by Holiday Inn Pride Park continues to thrive. The hotel recently celebrated its tenth birthday and, following its extensive refurbishment in 2007, its still a thoroughly modern property which has lost none of its warmth and hospitality.Perhaps more importantly, the hotel's birthday also marks the tenth anniversary of four of the hotel staff joining Somerston, clearly demonstrating their pride in the property and the team bond that exist there. |
