Charitable endeavours

Among our most significant and longstanding philanthropic relationships are our partnerships with The Starlight Foundation and Hospitality Action. The Starlight Foundation brings joy to seriously ill children through wish-granting and hospital entertainment, transforming the experience of illness for thousands of young people. Hospitality Action, meanwhile, provides crucial support to hospitality workers facing hardship, offering financial assistance, counselling, and advice to those who have dedicated their careers to caring for others.

Over the years, Red Carnation Hotels has contributed over one million pounds to these and other worthy causes through strategic donations and creative fundraising initiatives. This financial commitment represents just one dimension of our philanthropic approach.

Team volunteering

We also empower our team members to engage directly with causes that resonate with them personally. Every employee receives two paid volunteering days annually to support any registered charity of their choice. This policy has fostered remarkably diverse community engagement - from serving at London soup kitchens to volunteering at retirement homes in Clanwilliam, South Africa - allowing our team to channel their compassion into tangible impact.
