ARE YOUR LOOS FLUSHED WITH PRIDE?
Nominations and entries are now being received for
the 2006 Loo of the Year Awards -
the annual competition to find the best places 'to go' in Britain and
Ireland.
The competition, now in its twentieth year, is promoted by
The British Toilet Association and is
run this year in association with headline sponsor Initial
Washroom Solutions, the long established washroom product and
service supplier. Additional sponsorship is provided by
leading bathroom equipment manufacturer, Armitage Shanks, the
cleaning industry 'voice', The British Cleaning Council and Technical
Concepts, provider of the Neutralle brand of washroom products.
The Awards are also supported
by the national tourism bodies in
England
,
Scotland
,
Wales
and
Northern
Ireland
.
"With over 1000 entries received in 2005 and
a total of fifty five different entry categories
this year, we're expecting another significant increase in the
numbers of providers who want to be recognised as
quality places to visit" - quotes Awards Director Richard Chisnell. "First impressions anywhere are
normally made in the loo and that's where provider reputations are won
or lost".
Every entry receives a dedicated inspection visit
and entries gaining three, four or five stars
are presented with a Grading Certificate - to help them
promote their Award winning facilities.
There are a range of National Awards for each home
country as well as overall Winners' Trophies for
individual and public toilet entries, corporate provider
entries and the best babychange and accessible facilities.
Running alongside the Loo of the Year Awards are the Attendant Awards -
for the important people who maintain 'away from
home' toilets - either as full time
attendants, members of the in-house cleaning teams or external cleaning
contractors.
Anyone can nominate any number of 'away from home' loos, via the Awards
24 hour hotline: 01962 850277 or via
email: nominations@loo.co.uk. Nominations and
entries can also be made online via the Awards website: www.loo.co.uk
Closing date for entries this year is 31st July
and results will be announced and Awards Presentations held
at the end of November.
