Recycling Innitiative 2012
Our staff have created some great ideas for recycling waste streams at the hotel, here are a few ideas to try at home:

Charlie, our restaurant manager wanted to find a way to recycle our used Coffee Granules generated from the hotel's restaurant and onsite cafe deli. We are now drying our used granules and re-bagging them in their original packaging and giving them away to guests and visitors to the hotel, as well as working with Swaffham's Allotment group SCALGA.
Take a bag home with you!
Used Coffee Granules are a fantastic deterrent for slugs and snails in your garden. The nitrogen when mixed with your compost will ensure your flowers flourish!
The granules are also a great way to treat cellulite! Simply rub into the skin with oil & see the results after just one use! Demi Moore reportedly loves the treatment & printed advice is available at reception on request.
This coffee has been recycled & naturally dried without the need for mechanical energy. The granules have been collected from CoCoes Deli, ‘The Rustic’ restaurant & used coffee trays from our 14 rooms. They are travelling home with you in the bag we received the original beans in & as if our halo wasn’t shiny enough the original beans are organic, fair-trade & certified by the Rainforest Alliance!
... Well, when you have such a high quality product it seems a shame not to re-use it!
While these granules are with our compliments, we do ask that guests make a small donation to our collection for the Neuroblastoma Society. Neuroblastoma is a rare and aggressive childhood cancer. The charity's sole purpose is for the relief of children suffering from Neuroblastoma by raising funds for medical research into improving both diagnosis and treatment.
We hope you enjoy the benefits & please do let us know if you have other uses for coffee granules you would like to share!
RSPCA Corporate Week 30th April – 6th May 2012
Team Strattons got involved with raising money for RSPCA week by making animal themed cakes and selling them at CoCoes cafe deli. All funds raised are going to the cause.
We were very impressed with the efforts made, check out the fab cakes!
