Hotel announces year of support for ShelterBox
Staff from the Esplanade Hotel meet ShelterBox's Tim Bunting.
ShelterBox is delighted to announce that The Esplanade Hotel in Newquay has chosen to support ShelterBox as their Charity of the Year for 2011.
On Tuesday 11 January, staff from the Esplanade Hotel visited ShelterBox HQ in Helston, to see how their support will be making a difference. They were introduced to staff and volunteers and shown around the warehouse where boxes are packed ready for distribution.
Anna Betts, Corporate Fundraiser for ShelterBox, said: “We’re thrilled that The Esplanade Hotel has chosen to support us as a local charity. It's a stunning venue and we look forward to a fantastic year of fundraising with them.”
James Nettleton, Newquay Hotels Manager Director, said: “We’re delighted to be supporting Shelterbox in 2011. We’ve got a number of events planned throughout the year and hope to raise lots of money for such a unique and worthwhile Cornish charity!”
The Bay and Esplanade Hotels will be kicking off their fundraising effort with a Burns Night Supper on the 22 January. For more information contact Jo Ramsden by email on events@newquay-hotels.co.uk.
