From outdoor weddings in its 125-yearold Topiary Garden, to intimate affairs in its historic drawing room, Billesley Manor Hotel & Spa provides the perfect setting for a quintessential British wedding. 16th century luxury manor house, Billesley Manor is nestled in 11 acres of rural English countryside in the heart of Shakespearean England in Stratfordupon-Avon.
Steeped in history, with records dating back to the Norman Conquest, legend has it the Manor is where William Shakespeare penned one of his classics and married Anne Hathaway in 1582 in the small church near to the property. Ideal for those looking for a classic English venue to tie the knot, the hotel has 71 bedrooms, a stunning restaurant and bar featuring original 16th century oak panelling, together with modern spaces filled with natural light. And, not forgetting the wonderfully atmospheric gardens, creating a magical and romantic alfresco option to say I do.
For couples looking to tie the knot in a beautiful setting, surrounded only by friends
and family, Billesley Manor offers exclusive use of its property. Exclusive use guarantees guests to complete privacy for the duration of the wedding day - with sole exclusivity of the venue, grounds, staff and anything else required.
From starting the day with the use of the stunning bridal suite, while your guests enjoy the 70 ensuite bedrooms, and the husband-to-be making the most of the spa facilities with a morning dip in the pool, to finding those picture-perfect spots in the landscaped gardens for capturing those allimportant, intimate portraits. The bride and groom will feel like true English royalty on their very special Big Day.
Create Memories of a Lifetime in the 125-year-old Topiary Garden
Planted 125 years ago, the Manor’s Topiary Garden is a site to behold. The elegant Victorian-era garden provides an incredible backdrop for a wedding, with towering trees and bushes expertly clipped to portray chess pieces from Alice in Wonderland, including The White Queen, White Rabbit and, of course, The Mad Hatter. From clinking glasses of bubbles in the shadow of the playful topiary, to enjoying those super
special moments with your new bride as you stroll through this glorious English setting, the topiary garden is a wonderful location to create memories that will last a lifetime.
For a more intimate celebration, couples can choose to tie the knot in The Drawing Room or The Stuart Room. With a view of the stunning water fountain and gardens, the Drawing Room will cater for up to 16 closest friends and family. Meanwhile, The Stuart Room offers space for up to 40 guests, and provides a traditional oak panelled space with stunning chandeliers and period features.
An additional wedding location at Billesley Manor includes the Topiary Garden Suite, which opens up onto the Topiary Garden, but provides an all-weather alternative, which is filled with light, traditional white interiors and can be decked out with the Manor’s iconic red carpet for that ultimate celebrity entrance.
From English and Continental classics the menu at Billesley offers couples a wonderful selection of starters, mains and desserts. However, for favourites that aren’t on the menu, couples can ask the Chef to create a bespoke menuspecifically just for them. Enjoy a menu filled with delicious English classics, from Crispy Ham Hock with Piccalilli Gel to Whipped Goat Cheese & Apple Con and those with a sweet tooth will enjoy delights such as Dark Chocolate Delice, with Slated Carmel or Rhubarb and Custard…the Billesley way.
Party into the early hours and fill the evening reception with the entertainment of choice. No matter how big or small, couples can spend this magical evening making memories on the dance floor with friends and family.
To further highlight Billesley Manor as the perfect wedding location. The team is running a seven week-long Wedding Supplier Campaign on Instagram Live. Laura Cherrington, Director of Sales and Marketing will be going live every Wednesday at 7pm with a different supplier asking a range of questions to help couples plan the special day. Already in the pipeline is the Wedding Sales Executive, Local Photographers, Entertainers and experts in Hair and Beauty for the special day.

Three properties in Northern Ireland’s leading collection of hotels have received Silver Awards in Green Tourism. The Grand Central Hotel, Europa Hotel and Stormont Hotel, part of Hastings Hotels, have each received Silver Awards for Green Tourism. The Europa Hotel has also been awarded Silver accreditation for Green Meetings.
Green Tourism promotes greener ways for businesses and organisations to operate and the awards certification programme recognises the commitment of tourism businesses which are actively working to become more sustainable. The Green Meetings accreditation has recently been introduced as a new standard specific to meetings and events venues.
The Silver Awards are in recognition of the work and extensive sustainability initiatives and policies Hastings Hotels has implemented which include the introduction of environmentally friendly guest amenities including the replacement of plastic water bottles in guest bedrooms with sustainable water containers; the use of environmentally
friendly cleaning chemicals; where possible, internal and external lighting has been replaced to LED and 100 per cent of food waste diverted from landfill and is instead transported to anaerobic plant helping to create a net carbon saving estimated at 80 tonnes of CO2.
According to the Green Tourism report, Hastings Hotels ‘displayed an excellent understanding of sustainability and awareness of opportunities and challenges associated with running a responsible business. And scored well across the board but excelled in the Awareness, Food & Drink, Communications, Health & Wellbeing and Destination goals – showing a commitment to continual improvement, a willingness to implement change where required and dedication in the pursuit of sustainable business practices.’
Raymond Duncan, Compliance, Operations and Procurement Manager of Hastings Hotels said: “As part of our journey to becoming a more sustainable hotel group, we are delighted to have secured Silver Green Tourism accreditation for our three
Belfast properties and a second Silver award for the Europa Hotel for Green Meetings.
We have developed the Hastings Hotels ‘Go Green’ Policy and as a group, we are committed to ensuring that we measure and evaluate our current practices, adopting the most effective policies to minimise our carbon footprint and adhere to sustainable practices wherever possible. This is very much part of a long-term sustainability strategy for Hastings Hotels and we are now working towards securing Green Tourism accreditation for the Culloden Estate & Spa, Ballygally Castle and Everglades Hotel.”
“We take the role we play in sustainability as an employer very seriously, and with over 1,000 employees we know the difference we can help make. As part of this, we have developed a bespoke sustainability programme for our staff to help them better understand and tackle the issues surrounding sustainability. This will enable them to become champions for best environmental practice, not only across our six properties but in their day to day life,” Raymond added.
Hastings Hotels undertook the process as part of a city-wide sustainable Green Tourism partnership funded by Belfast City Council and delivered by Visit Belfast and the organisation’s Sustainability and Impact Manager, Jac Callan congratulated Hastings Hotels on its efforts in achieving these important green tourism and meetings accreditations: “We are delighted that the three Belfast properties of the Hastings Hotel Group have achieved Silver accreditation. Sustainability is increasingly shaping the future of the visitor marketplace and the business events space we operate in, so it’s crucial we meet these expectations if we want to attract new and repeat business to Belfast. By demonstrating the city has a growing portfolio of tourism businesses committed to environmentally friendly and ethical practices helps the city remain attractive in a highly competitive marketplace.
Tourism is playing a crucial role in supporting the city-vision of transitioning to an inclusive, zero-emissions, and climate resilient economy within a generation. We’re delighted to be helping our tourism partners with the support of Belfast City Council in leading the way to a more sustainable and regenerative tourism model; one that meet the needs of visitors, the industry and the local community, now and in the future.”

The restaurant scene in Liverpool just got a whole lot meatier with the opening of two of the UK’s most successful steak restaurant brands. However, it’s Gaucho with its 100% carbon neutral beef and location in the stunning historical Grade II listed former Bank of Liverpool building, along with some incredible fundraising, that’s been causing a real stir amongst the city’s carnivores.
The Argentinian-inspired restaurant opened its doors at the end of November on Water Street following a seven-figure investment and is Gaucho’s largest restaurant outside of London, offering sophisticated interiors, all-day dining, Sunday roasts, immersive experiences at the Beef Bar and late-night cocktails. Cementing its position within the local community, the restaurant raised over £45K in its first week of opening for the Marina Dalglish Appeal that helps improve the lives of those fighting cancer and Alder Hey Children’s Hospital.
First and foremost a steak restaurant, Gaucho showcases Argentinian flavours throughout its extensive menu, using only 100% carbon neutral beef, as part of the brand’s roadmap to ultimately becoming net zero.
With the menu overseen by Executive Chef Mike Reid, starters include shrimp ceviche with picante rojo, avocado and arepa bread; tuna tiradito with coconut milk dressing, lime and plantain crisp; and empanadas filled with your choice of beef, sweet potato and provolone, or chicken and chorizo. Gaucho’s impeccably sourced sustainable steaks are the stars of the show.
Choose your cut from the day’s top picks brought to your table and talked through by the expert team with a flavour and texture profile on each provided, as well as chef’s recommendation for the perfect serve. Options include the likes of delicately marbled ribeye; a tender yet succulent sirloin; or super lean fillet. For a flavour sensation, the speciality churrasco steaks see the meat spiral cut and marinated with garlic, parsley and olive oil whilst the showstopping chateaubriand is perfect for sharing. For those struggling to choose, the Gaucho Sampler provides diners with four different cuts. Each steak is served with your choice of sauce, from firecracker chimichurri and blue cheese through to bearnaise and peppercorn.
Other mains on offer include a whole grilled seabass served simply with olive oil, lemon and herbs; a marinated pork matambre with Malbec jam; and black truffle stuffed gnocchi with kale and chestnut pesto, sauteed porcini mushrooms, cream and parmesan.
For an interactive dining experience, pull up a stool at the eight-seater counter-top beef bar and dine from the Argentine beef tasting menu, featuring dishes such as the Cuadril Carpaccio, Lomo Tiraditos, Chorizo Tartare, and a selection of the finest steak cuts whilst watching the chef prepare each to your taste. For those seeking a truly interactive experience, diners can cook their own steaks on individual hot stones.
Not to be missed, head to Gaucho every Thursday, Friday and Saturday for serious
late night party vibes. Kicking off from 8pm, enjoy vibrant entertainment, live music and DJs bringing the best beats, all inspired by the culture of modern Argentina.
Come Sunday, it’s all about the Bottomless Roast. Whilst the beef changes, dependent on the best cuts available, what is guaranteed is perfectly pink meat with crisp roast potatoes, a Yorkshire pudding, glazed vegetables and lashing of gravy, and the food will keep on coming until you say so. Available noon – 3pm / £36 per person.
Boasting one of the largest selections of Argentinian wines outside of the country itself, Gaucho’s drinks list has a pour for every palate. With an array of white, red, rosé and sparkling wines on offer, if South American wine isn’t your style there are picks from across the globe too, with the option for a guided tasting with one of the expert team members.
Cocktails are truly creative with a list of classic and signature choices showcasing innovative and complex flavour combinations.
As you arrive at Gaucho Liverpool, you’ll be greeted by the two famous tiger heads on the exterior doors, said to bring good luck to those who rub the teeth of the figures. Inside, the design takes inspiration from the passion-fuelled tango clubs that bring the streets of Buenos Aires to life each night, with touches of faded glamour and layering of South American details throughout. Statement features further lend to the drama, with a central island bar, striking burnt orange marble pillars, and high ceilings with intricate detailing. A warm colour palette of reds, oranges, and earthy tones is offset with touches of gold detailing and pops of foliage, with an inviting yet exclusive feel.
Providing an ultra-stylish location for any manner of event, Gaucho Liverpool is home to two private dining rooms, both named for the building’s former occupants. The Manager’s Office is an intimate space for up to 10, whilst The Boardroom can accommodate up to 18. Take your pick from a wide range of event menus, from canapes to sharing plates and group feasting menus.

Hotel, Restaurant & Catering (HRC) will return to ExCeL London on 20-22 March alongside IFE, International Food & Drink Event, IFE Manufacturing and historic chef competition International Salon Culinaire.
For more than 87 years HRC has stood at the forefront of hospitality innovation, welcoming thousands of visitors every year to test, taste and discover the latest products from the finest suppliers in the market.
This year’s event is packed with new features, innovative products and networking opportunities for hospitality owners and operators to grow their business and get to grips with the latest industry trends.
Daniel Butcher, GM of La Nonna Pasta Fresca, says of the show: “I find these events to be a day of exploration, discovery, motivation and a developmental opportunity
for any business owner or manager. I have visited HRC in the past and find it the best in the business. I am very much looking forward to networking across our industry with suppliers and other restaurateurs this year.”
Inspiring industry insights
HRC’s Vision Stage, designed by Harp Design, is packed with fascinating sessions from hospitality leaders and industry experts, with practical, actionable takeaways for visitors to implement in their own businesses.
Blake Gladman, Strategy & Insight Director at KAM, who will be leading a discussion on making low & no alcohol products profitable for hospitality businesses, comments: “Our session will be focussed on the £800m tap water opportunity in pubs, bars and restaurants.
Recent research by KAM found that 22% of customers who don’t intend to drink alcohol
while in a venue will default to tap water. This equates to a £800m opportunity to upsell them to something more inspiring (and profitable!) We’ll talk about the importance of a great alcohol-free range, how to communicate effectively in venues, and ultimately discuss how we can better serve those who don’t want alcohol.”
On the Tech X stage, Robert Richardson, CEO of the Institute of Hospitality, will lead a discussion on building a sustainable future for hospitality, with panellists Andrew Coney of The Hari Hotel Belgravia, Erin Ling, Lecturer in Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Work at the University of Surrey, Daniel Pedreschi of PPHE Hotel Group and Tej Wallia, Foxhills Club & Resort.
Richardson says: “HRC is an invaluable opportunity to network with the amazing hospitality community and hear from inspiring leaders and innovators in our industry. I’m looking forward to chairing the discussion on building a sustainable future for hospitality and delighted that the Institute of Hospitality is once again partnering with the event.”
Tech X will also host a discussion on how accessibility can be transformed through technology, with Ross Calladine of VisitEngland, Paul Bayliss MBE of Hotel Brooklyn, Ed Warner of Motionspot, Fiona Jarvis of Blue Badge Style, and Peter Hayes of TranslateLive.
Bayliss comments: “It’s great to be asked to speak on a subject of technology and accessibility because without it we’d struggle to communicate with and deliver the kind of experience a guest with challenges requires from a luxury hotel.
“I’m really looking forward to talking about how it helps our Hotel Brooklyn properties thrive in delivering a great experience for all and just how much we continue to learn on the subject.”
A new feature for this year’s event is Chef HQ, curated by Chef Publishing, a stage, demo kitchen and networking area for chefs and hospitality business operators. Leading chefs from the UK and Europe will be taking to the stage to discuss the trends and products that they’re passionate about, while whipping up some delicious dishes for the audience.
Among the sessions taking place in Chef HQ are a demo from National Chef of the Year Ben Murphy, a presentation from Nathan Davies of SY23, fresh from wowing the judges on Great British Menu and securing his first Michelin star, and an interview with the chefs of The Future Plate, a collection of leading black chefs of African and Carribean heritage sharing their culture through tasting menus.
Chef HQ will also feature A. Wong Chef Patron Andrew Wong discussing the art of dim sum, a behind the scenes look at the Bocuse d’Or with team UK coach Tom Philips and Chair of the competition Andreas Antona, and a ‘getting to know you’ chat with Kim Rathoroen, who will discuss her journey from a stage at Restaurant Gordon Ramsay to taking up the role of Head Chef at the chain’s London Chelsea premise.
Five packed show sections
HRC connects visitors directly with quality suppliers to grow their business across design & décor, professional kitchen equipment, foodservice and hospitality tech.
This year’s event welcomes back The Pub Show @ HRC, with a wide range of suppliers to the pub & bar sector and the return of the ever-popular Taproom feature, the go-to place to discover exciting new craft beer and cider suppliers.
For visitors looking to meet with quality design & décor suppliers, RAK Porcelain will be on hand with a range of stylish tableware and cutlery, combining design and functionality and loved by top chefs around the world.

As 2022 came to a close, it’s time to look ahead to what trends will be cropping up on the restaurant scene next year. Here, Guy Cooper from catering equipment manufacturer and distributor Mitchell & Cooper has used his knowledge to bring together his top trends for 2023.
From the rise in new cuisines to tech that could add to the customer experience, there’s plenty on the way to be excited about. Fuelled by increased competition to get customers through the doors, restaurants will find new and unique ways to make themselves stand out.
As we move into 2023, it’s no secret that many consumers will need extra temptation to encourage them to enter a restaurant, and establishments will become more creative with finding different attractions to bring in custom. This might include deals on set
interest. menus, sharing plates, including a drink with a meal price, or other ways to bring in more We might also see restaurants experimenting with more novelty elements to increase footfall, such as themed nights or menus, guest appearances from popular chefs, and more. There may also be an increased focus on ‘nose to tail’ cookery, utilising as much as possible out of the produce that is bought. The year is set to be an exciting one in this sense, with establishments going the extra mile to bring in more business.
While the UK food scene still has its favourites, such as Indian and Italian cuisines, there are set to be some new trends on the horizon next year. The first is West African food, which has increased in popularity with restaurants like The Africa Centre and Ikoyi in London raising awareness about how many wonderful dishes this region has to offer.
Then, there’s Colombian and Kurdish cuisine which are both rising in popularity and will continue to do so throughout 2023. So, if you’re interested in exploring new dishes and regions for inspiration at your restaurant, this is a great time to try out some new things.
The interest in vegan and plant-based cuisine is only set to continue into 2023. Consumers have become much more interested in how their buying choices can be kind to the planet recently, and this is a part of the rise in plantbased food. But there’s also the factor that many people are increasingly realising how tasty and fun plant-based menus can be!
So, incorporate some plant-based and vegan options into your menu next year, and keep everyone accommodated for. It’s also a great time to push your plant-based choices in your advertising and make sure that
customers know about them, to maximise how on trend you are. Make sure that your menus are accurately coded too so that people can tell which dietary option is which easily. As the increase in plantbased eating is partly about sustainability, you might also want to explore seasonal and ‘nose to tail’ dishes, and advertise this too.
It might surprise you to learn that the trend of solo dining is on the rise. The hashtags #SoloDate and #DiningAlone are gaining views on TikTok, and eating out solo is becoming much more commonplace. It’s therefore a good idea to accommodate for those looking to dine alone, with smaller tables and counter seating available for those out on solo dates.
Menus will also become more accommodating to those dining out alone, with mini versions of sharing and tasting platters, and tapas selections that offer set menus for solo diners. This new trend is a great way for customers to come and experience what your cooking has to offer without being distracted from it, so make sure to offer space for them and to create enticing menu options for those interested in the food.
“There are lots of interesting trends coming up on the horizon in 2023, and jumping on them is a great way for restaurants to get a head start on the year. There will be lots of growth in new cuisines and menu types next year as establishments find more innovative ways to encourage customers through their doors. It’s set to be a great time for new catering trends and for diners to explore new cuisines.
“As well as new experiences, we should see more technology on the horizon too. This might include simple things like menu apps, or it might be more innovative, with customers being able to order before they get in the restaurant. Or, establishments may explore tech’s potential further, and utilise it to create playlists to go with set menus.”- Guy Cooper, Managing Director at Mitchell & Cooper
The West End’s largest independent theatre, Shaftesbury Theatre, is enhancing its hospitality facilities with the launch of an elegant new events space, allowing the Theatre to host a range of events, from conferences and social gatherings to seminars and product launches, as well as daytime events in the Theatre itself including all types of productions.
Home for more than a century to an eclectic range of hugely successful shows, including the current award-winning world premiere of the musical & Juliet, the Theatre’s new event space, The 1911, commemorates the Theatre’s inaugural year and is due to open on the 10th of October.
The 1911 can host from 50 to 225 people for breakfast, meetings, briefings, and receptions. It expands the Theatre’s diverse range of hospitality facilities which include its beautiful auditorium and bars.
Gary England, Commercial Director, said: “Shaftesbury Theatre has been an icon at the heart of the local community for more than a century, and with the launch of The 1911 we are delighted to be able to offer the Theatre to a much wider meetings and events audience for a whole host of events, from corporate meetings to team building and more. The Theatre and The 1911 have huge potential to help create extraordinary events and we can’t wait to share it.”
The 1911 is the latest in a series of major works which have been undertaken at the Grade II listed building. This includes the development of a second private hospitality space, the Taffner Suite, the installation of a cutting-edge air-conditioning system designed to reduce energy costs, the fitting of a lift which allows people with mobility issues to access the Stalls, and the addition of thirteen spaces for wheelchairs in the Theatre’s auditorium.
Shaftesbury Theatre also has big ambitions for the future. Upcoming redevelopment work to Princes Circus, as part of Camden Council’s West End Project to the west and north of the Theatre, is expected to provide further opportunities for expansion, including the creation of an outdoor food counter with a designated seating area.
James Williams, Chief Executive, said: “For over 110 years, Shaftesbury Theatre has been the home of distinctiveness, openness, and originality. We take pride in providing our guests with exceptional service and unforgettable experiences. With the opening of The 1911, people and businesses in Camden, as well as the wider meetings and events community, will be able to benefit from that wealth of experience, breadth of knowledge, and our commitment to creating one-of-a-kind events.”

With commuters returning to the workplace hitting a post-pandemic high, expectations of a cleaner, safer, and more hygienic working environment mean the responsibilities of cleaning and hygiene professionals and facilities managers across the country have intensified. In light of this, the UK’s leading event for the cleaning and hygiene industry, The Cleaning Show 2023 has announced some of the industry’s leading suppliers and manufacturers that are confirmed to exhibit when the event returns to the ExCeL, London from 14-16 March 2023
Attendees at The Cleaning Show will be left feeling confident that the industry is striving for change – specifically when it comes to sustainability – when a multitude of exhibitors will have the opportunity to demonstrate how they are putting environmental concerns at the fore.
Demonstrating the importance of sustainability and the environment, Biovate
Hygienics will promote its biologically sustainable cleaning products and demonstrate how it is working towards completely carbon neutral products, whilst EcoBag UK will showcase its Eco 360 circular economy range of refuse sacks, the Eco Wrap PE (no PVC) catering cling film and its disposable plastic aprons which have been supplied to many UK businesses to help the fight against COVID-19. All of its products are made through the sourcing of post industrial and consumer scrap plastic bound for landfill, helping to drive circularity through recycling. Finally, Soap2o will bring its latest, most innovative product range of dispensers, Eco Hand Soaps and biodegradable soap sachets, which reduce waste and embrace sustainability, all without increasing costs.
Whilst sustainability is a clear priority for business owners across the industry, emerging developments in cleaning equipment technology are accelerating the work done by cleaning professionals in a timely manner, driving efficiency especially
in hospitals or football stadiums where the scale of operation is much larger.
Paving the way forward with its range of advanced robotics, returning exhibitor Killis will be hosting live, interactive product demonstrations in the product theatre with its latest new cobot, The Leobot. Visitors will also be able to interact with its R3 Scrub Battery Robotic Scrubber Dryer and see the latest Robot Vacuum’s in action.
Fellow exhibitor Makita will invite attendees to discover its latest range of new tools and vacuuming solutions, including the 40Vmax Brushless Backpack Vacuum Cleaner XGT which is lightweight and compact for a quiet operation. It has a 4-mode suction power selection with mode memory function, as well as an extensive run time. Attendees will be able to test Makita’s latest range of reliable commercial carpet and hard-floor vacuuming solutions at the show.
Jangro will also return to exhibit its range of floor cleaning, kitchen hygiene and hand drying units, offering existing and new customers its unmissable, high-quality solutions for building maintenance, whilst P-Wave will launch its new professional 30day plug-in air freshener for larger spaces, ourfresh-e™, which contains 3-5 times more fragrance than supermarket purchased plug-ins. Also confirmed to exhibit, Numatic will excite delegates with its NX1K scrubber dryer range which delivers leading cleaning results from its latest battery technology, as well as exhibiting its selection of effective floorcare solutions.
The technology on display will also highlight how advances are helping some of the sectors most important business’s function. For example, Cleanlink Software Ltd will be demonstrating its award-winning software which enables any site-based business to efficiently manage their staff and resources across multiple sites. Meanwhile, enabling operators to automate workflow’s, CleanManager will help visitors understand its all-in-one management software to ensure effective and simple administration.
Elsewhere, the world’s leading software for security, cleaning and facilities management companies, TEAM Software, will provide
cleaning, security and facilities management delegates with its market leading solution which helps manage workforces, deliver on promises to customers and run a smarter operation.
Responding to the growing need for service providers, products and new innovations in the FM & PPE industries, this year’s event will also see an increased focus on the solutions and technologies driving growth in the sector – valued to be worth over £50 billion in the UK.
For example, 2San Global Limited will showcase its development Clean Zero, the world’s first 100% environmentally friendly cleaning solution which provides cleaning and disinfection to a hospital grade standard. It is proven to quickly eradicate 99% of bacteria and viruses in just two sprays, providing an effective real-world infection prevention solution. Meanwhile, Kimberly-Clark Professional is due to highlight its washroom and hygiene, PPE and wiping and cleaning solutions.
Commenting on this year’s line-up, Jim Melvin, Chairman, British Cleaning Council, said: “The cleaning, hygiene and waste sector is one of the ten biggest industries in the UK, and it is important that this resonates at The Cleaning Show which brings the industry together to celebrate its crucial work.
“The Covid-19 pandemic changed so many perspectives on cleaning, PPE and importantly the roles of cleaning and hygiene operatives, so I am certain that the line-up of exhibitors will be a hit with attendees as more businesses look to improve the safety of staff in the workplace. And, as we enter the winter months where viruses have an environment to thrive, it is even more important to keep our key workers and the public safe, healthy and well.”
Paul Sweeney, Event Director, The Cleaning Show, added: “It was clear to see that the last show’s visitors were eager to see more solutions within the many avenues available for the cleaning industry. We want people to recognise that the cleaning industry is an exciting one to work for with a huge scope for progression, and our exhibitors help us to demonstrate that with their forward-thinking solutions provide attendees with the answers they need to respond to today’s challenges. We’re very excited to return to London in March to reflect on the evolution of the industry and unite once again to network, inspire, and educate our visitors on the latest advancements.”
