BaxterStorey partners with Waste Knot
The two companies will work together to set an industry example.
BaxterStorey has become the first company to partner with Waste Knot’s new campaign to support hospitality workers’ mental health by reconnecting them with nature. The two companies will work together to set an industry example when it comes to team member wellbeing, with the caterer’s internal Wisdom of Wellbeing group being the first to attend the campaign’s mental health support course.
The fruit and vegetable waste prevention organisation’s Waste Knot People campaign aims to address concerns around the environments and cultures that hospitality professionals have been operating in. Waste Knot has developed day-courses at Brook Farm in Harwich to help attendees develop a range of techniques for resilience, grounding, understanding of how our inner-ecosystems are inextricably linked to our outer-ecosystems and what we can learn from how nature behaves.
'A duty of care to protect'
Greg Bramwell, director of food and beverage for BaxterStorey, said: “As a business, we have a duty of care to protect and safeguard our people, especially in these extremely tough times for society. Our collaboration with Waste Knot will ensure our people have exposure to the environment and access to professional support networks, as well as providing education, exercise and some much-needed fun in the process.”
