I thoroughly enjoyed my conversation with Adam Hamadache FIH for The Hotel Growth Podcast. We discussed the growing gap between rising operating costs and what guests are willing to pay, how leaders can navigate uncertainty whilst building resilient teams, why hospitality continues to be misunderstood and often undervalued by government, and a subject particularly close to my heart: the case for recognising hospitality as a true profession. Thank you, Adam, for such a great conversation. You can listen here: open.spotify.com/episode/09I… #HospitalityFamily #CharteredStatus #Podcast

A useful and constructive meeting in Westminster today with Daisy Cooper MP, alongside our Institute of Hospitality Chair, Martin Traynor OBE FIH. Our discussion focused on professional development opportunities for our hospitality profession over the next decade, the challenges we currently face, and how these can impact our ability to unlock the full potential of our people. We also shared progress on our Chartered Status application, and the wider public benefit it represents for both the profession and the communities we serve. Daisy continues to be a strong and consistent advocate for our #HospitalityFamily. At a time when it can feel as though our profession is not always being heard, with hotels and hospitality venues facing significant increases in rates bills, and pubs closing at a rate of one per week, it is both encouraging and important to engage with those who recognise the value, scale, and significance of hospitality to the UK economy and society. Because, simply, when people are out of work, they cannot develop their skills, grow as professionals, or give back to the communities and economies that rely on them. And because, when hospitality is understood, it is supported, and when it is supported, it thrives. #StrongerTogether #InspireMotivateLearn #CharteredStatus #imin

Hospitality is a profession of unlimited potential that delivers a clear public benefit through vibrant communities, skills development, and significant economic contribution. And with that in mind, thank you @Sacha_Lord FIH for your continued support of the Institute of Hospitality's Chartered Status application, as set out in your opinion piece for the Evening Standard this week: "...What we urgently need is one voice that talks directly to Government, which is why I’ve supported the chartered status application for The Institute of Hospitality. It’s a global hospitality organisation with professional development standards built in the UK. The application is supported by 1.87 million people. Alongside them is representation from within the House of Lords, including Lord Thurso. Giving it chartered status would prevent not just the U-turns and ridiculous decisions, but it would also send a strong signal to the sector that finally the Government are willing to engage and, more importantly, listen..." This support matters. It reinforces the case that hospitality is a profession with unlimited potential, deserving of formal recognition and constructive engagement with the UK Government. For those who may not be familiar, Chartered Status recognises the professionalism of a workforce that supports communities, contributes to economic growth, and creates opportunities across society. The scale of public support, such as this, underlines the readiness of our profession to be heard and taken seriously. Because, hospitality is not a low-skilled occupation, it is a significant, skilled profession. A career of choice, not chance. And that's something we should all be able to stand behind. standard.co.uk/going-out/res… via @theLDNstandard #HospitalityFamily #Imin #CharteredStatus #StrongerTogether

Finally received it. Proud to share that I’ve been admitted as a Chartered Member (CMIOSH) of the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health. Becoming Chartered reflects a strong commitment to professional standards, ethical practice, and continuous development in occupational safety and health. Grateful for the learning journey so far — and looking forward to continuing to grow, contribute, and uphold best practice wherever I work. #CMIOSH #IOSH #CharteredStatus #ProfessionalDevelopment #HealthAndSafety #LifelongLearning

It was a pleasure to speak in front of MPs, industry leaders, and our partners from the Ministry of Defence at the Institute of Hospitality Parliamentary Reception in the House of Commons yesterday, raising awareness of the need for our #HospitalityFamily to have formal recognition within UK Government as a profession of choice, not chance. This is a subject we are deeply passionate about at the Institute, because we know that when a profession is trusted, it is given responsibility. When it is recognised, it is given a voice. And when hospitality becomes Chartered, it is finally acknowledged as the profession it has always been: A profession of choice and opportunity, serving people, communities, and the cultural and economic success of our great nation. A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, and to Peter Bedford MP for hosting our reception. #imin #InspireMotivateLearn #CharteredStatus
