In 2009 we decided to further our green credentials to ensure we were still operating at a suitable level of sustainability, by joining the Green Tourism Business Scheme.
The GTBS is the national sustainable tourism certificate scheme that runs across the UK and rigorously assesses a wide range of criteria including energy and water efficiency, waste management, biodiversity and more.
We're delighted that in April 2011 we were awarded a GOLD Award from GTBS!
Key areas that have allowed us to achieve Gold include a structured and on-going Lean Management system, our reduction in paper usage (for example, no paper brochures), and our Going Green With Hello supplier program and associated communication.
