Congratulations to our Elior CSR team on their success at last night’s Footprint Awards in the Economic Sustainability category. This recognition highlighted our Track’d waste reduction initiative and the team’s brilliant work in turning sustainability into something practical, scalable and impactful across our sites. Since its launch in our education business in January, Track’d has already delivered measurable economic impact. Alongside this, the judges also recognise the positive shift from single-use to reusable packaging in our sites, delivering clear operational and financial benefits while reducing environmental impact. A fantastic achievement, well done to Rebecca Herman and Hannah Craig (pictured collecting the trophy) and to everyone involved....Show more

Supporting our colleagues with the knowledge they need to deliver great service is fundamental to what we do Around 20 of our Operations colleagues recently took part in a Dementia Friends workshop, delivered by the Alzheimer’s Society. The session focused on increasing awareness and understanding of dementia, and how it impacts both those living with the condition and the people around them. By continuing to invest in education and awareness, we’re helping our teams build the skills and confidence needed to support residents with greater empathy and understanding.

Supporting the communities around us is a key part of how we deliver social value, and volunteering plays an important role in that. Colleagues Zen Anwar, Hannah Craig, Rebecca Herman, Leah Style and Freya Thomsson-Marshall (ANutr) recently spent time at Refettorio Felix, supporting front-of-house activity, serving meals and drinks, helping with set-up, and creating a welcoming environment for guests. Refettorio Felix is a drop-in centre and community kitchen serving vulnerable people in Earl’s Court and beyond. With an open-door policy, it welcomes anyone facing challenges such as homelessness, loneliness, substance misuse and mental health difficulties. Many guests come for lunch and stay for the warmth, care and sense of community. Since launching Lifetime of Enrichment, colleagues across Elior and Lexington Catering have supported 30 sessions at the centre, continuing to make a meaningful contribution through collective action....Show more
