We are CH&CO - a group of chefs, nutritionists and people pleasers with a shared passion for food that fuels emotional positivity as well as physical wellbeing. In a world where what we consume is becoming ever faster and more disposable, we’re proud to take a more thoughtful, mindful approach to the food experiences we source, prepare and present.
CH&CO holds a Royal Warrant for catering services to Her Majesty The Queen.
We’re a national organisation, but we tailor our services to meet local needs, working closely with communities to make a meaningful difference.
We help people live as independently as possible through supported housing, Care Quality Commission (CQC) registered services, retirement communities, move-on accommodation, floating support, and technology in the home.
We provide specialist support for:
• Mental health needs
• People with physical and learning disabilities
• Homeless families and individuals
• Young people
• Older people
• People experiencing domestic abuse
Working in close partnership with the people we support, their families, carers, and health professionals, we deliver high-quality services that support people on their unique pathways to independence.
At Zizzi we’re all about delicious Italian food with a twist to surprise and delight all tastes, because good food does more than fill you up, it brings people together.
We have over 130 restaurants across the UK & Ireland, each individually designed with touches unique to the local area and perfect for all occasions.
OUR MENU
is made up of tasty Italian dishes from pizza, pasta and risotto to salads and indulgent desserts but always with a twist – like a classic Carbonara with pancetta and chorizo or a traditional garlic bread with mozzarella & caramelised balsamic onions. We strive to bring out our customer’s inner foodies by constantly innovating our menu and adding delicious & exciting ingredients like hot smoked salmon and fresh Wildfarmed pasta.
Whether you’re a meat-eater, veggie, vegan or gluten-free we have a dish to suit all tastes & requirements.
OUR RESTAURANTS
are packed with individual touches unique to their local surroundings, as each one is designed with the community & history of the area in mind. Whichever Zizzi you step inside, expect to see hand painted murals, open theatre kitchens and lots of iconic touches (our personal favourite is the ‘you are magic’ sign in Zizzi Braintree)!
We want your Zizzi experience to encourage you to sit back, relax, enjoy and let us do the hard work, whatever the occasion.
HOME OF THE RUSTICA
our signature pizzas are hand-stretched to make a bigger, thinner, crispier base and are loaded with indulgent topping combinations from slow cooked pulled pork to garlic meatballs and spicy roquito chillies.
In 1985, Travelodge became Britain’s first value hotel brand when it launched in the UK, opening its first hotel at Barton under Needwood in the heart of England. Since those early days, Travelodge has gone from strength to strength. It is now the UK’s largest independent hotel brand, with more than 580 hotels and 40,000 guest bedrooms, right across the UK as well as in Ireland and Spain.
You’ll find our hotels in the centre of major cities, including London, Edinburgh, Cardiff, Manchester, Birmingham, Belfast, Dublin, Barcelona, and Madrid; in most of Britain’s larger towns,
as well as in the classic seaside locations and vital roadside stops.
More than 190 of our hotels have our on-site Bar Café restaurant, and almost all are located close to other restaurants and coffee shops, making Travelodge the ideal base for travel. We continue to expand, with 13 new hotels expected to open in 2020 and further locations identified for expansion.
More than 11,000 Travelodge colleagues work together to look after our customers each day.
We offer a wide range of roles, including front-line guest service positions, construction and maintenance teams and a range of positions in our support centre.
With a mix of full-time and part-time roles, we are an ideal employment choice for people who are looking to build their careers in hospitality, or fit work around other commitments, including working parents, students and people looking for a second career later in life.
All new team members undergo an induction programme to support them in being successful in their role and further training is made available for all team members to progress and advance their careers.
Over more than thirty years, we have helped thousands of people grow their careers and make the journey from entry-level jobs to management positions. Our management development programme, ‘Aspire’ is central to our approach, helping candidates secure externally recognised qualifications as well as practical management skills. We currently have many colleagues studying towards apprenticeship and management qualifications, as well as other colleagues developing through professional qualifications and on the job training.
Travelodge recognises the benefits of having a diverse workforce with different backgrounds and experiences, solely employed on ability and it supports this belief with clear policies on equality and diversity and a track record of strong representation at all levels from people of all backgrounds. Travelodge monitors the diversity of job applicants, as well as the composition of our existing workforce by each protected characteristic in order to support a culture of equality, diversity and inclusion. We remain committed to evolving our approach to ensure it is embedded as a way of life across the organisation.
Britannia Hotels have 63 hotels across the UK, offering over 10,000 bedrooms. Location is key to our success, and our hotels can be found in prime cities across the UK, as well as near major airports, in coastal, beach-front towns, or surrounded by stunning countryside. Our competitive pricing offers real value for money, both for individuals and for companies looking to save on quality accommodation. Amenities such as restaurants, bars, health-clubs and Wi-Fi are complemented by the rich décor and friendly atmosphere. In addition we also offer entertainment at a number of our hotels.
We’re incredibly proud to be the UK’s most loved bed retailer. Most recommended, too, as it goes.
We know finding that ideal bed can be tricky (and don’t
get us started on mattresses!) but that’s why we’re here.
As a British business, we’re proud to manufacture locally,
where we make, sell and deliver over half a million
mattresses, headboards, and divans every year.
Now that’s a lot of Zzzs.
