               5.      The Green Agenda





















               We  all  have  a  responsibility  to  make  reasonable  efforts  to  conserve  energy
               and  to  recycle  where  possible.    Jurys  Inn  have  achieved  the  Green  Tourism
               Business  Scheme  -  Gold  Award  for  our  efforts  in  this  area  which  is  a  great
               achievement.  There is a “Green” specialist in every property whose role is
               to identify areas of improvement and to communicate and work with the team to
               implement the changes needed to minimise our impact on the environment.

               We  also  encourage  our  employees  to  get  involved  with  the  Local  Community,
               supporting “clean up” and “recycle campaigns” as well as local charities.

               Our  Corporate  Responsibility  Policy  –  “Positive  Impact”  –  shows  that  there
               are  simple  things  that  everyone  can  do  to  help,  for  example,  switching  off
               things when not in  use, turning lights off when not needed, recycling waste
               and making sure it is broken down correctly.  Did you know that bottles can
               be used to resurface roads as well as make new bottles?  And, plastic can be
               used to provide bedding to cattle and horses as well as new plastic?  We all
               need to do our bit to help to sustain our future.

               Please  always  consider  whether  or  not  something  really  needs  to  be  printed
               (like this Guide) or can it be viewed online?  If you do have to print, look
               to  minimise  the  number  of  pages  or  print  double  sided.    And  always  re-use
               paper  –  the  backs  of  documents  are  great  for  making  notes  on!    There  are
               plenty  of  things  you  can  get  involved  in  through  the  community  and  we
               encourage you to do so.

               We  want  to  raise  awareness  about  what  it  is  to  be  Green  and  how  we  can
               protect  our  environment.    Your  ideas  are  always  welcome  through  the  Be
               Involved  scheme  –  just  email  your  idea  to  be_involved@jurysinns.com,  all
               ideas will be considered, and you will receive feedback. And who knows, maybe
               your idea will be implemented across the whole Company!
