CHA hotel environmental awards deadline extended

15th March 2010, 9:13am

The deadline for the annual 'Considerate Hotel of the Year Awards 2009/10' has been extended to 31 March 2010 to give busy UK hoteliers and guest-house operators an extra 12 days to put the finishing touches to their entries.

The awards are open to all hotels and guest-houses in the UK and include the newly introduced category of – 'The Considerate Green Marketing Initiative of the Year', sponsored by Beacon Purchasing.

The new award is one of five categories: Considerate Hotel of the Year Awards 2009/10', 'The Considerate Sustainable Food Award', 'The Considerate Green Team of the Year', 'The Considerate Green Champion of the Year' and 'The Considerate Hotel of the Year'.

Commenting on the awards, CHA director and association secretary John Firrell said: "We hope that by giving busy hoteliers and guest-house owners extra time to complete their entries, we can exceed the overwhelming success of the 2008/9 CHA annual awards which attracted a record number of high quality entries.

"In all of this year's five award categories, we are looking to see what responsible and considerate UK hoteliers and guest-house owners have achieved during 2009. So this is a great opportunity for accommodation operators to stand up and be counted by entering the 2009/10 awards – to gain well earned recognition for the excellent environmental and socially responsible work undertaken during the year."

The awards will be presented in May 2010, at a special gala lunch in a top London CHA member hotel – full details to be released shortly.
