Two members of the Kent Hospitality team – Steven Cullen and Liz Slattery – have been presented with a Pride Award for outstanding service.

The Pride (‘Personal responsibility in delivering excellence’) Award recognises members of Kent Hospitality staff who go out of their way to deliver excellent customer service.

In September, the Award was awarded jointly to Steven Cullen, Turing College Handyman and Liz Slattery, College Receptionist. Steve was nominated for his hard work as Turing College’s handyman and creating a bespoke label holder for the new Hut8 catering outlet. Liz was nominated for taking a visitor to hospital late at night after her shift had finished.

Any Kent Hospitality staff (permanent or casual) may be nominated from Canterbury and Medway campuses. The award is given in April, September/October and December, with each winner receiving £100 of shopping vouchers.

Nominations can be made by any member of University staff, students or visitors. Red nomination boxes are located in all Kent Hospitality’s catering outlets in Canterbury and Medway, as well in College reception areas. Alternatively, you can download the form and email it to Rooie Thomas.

Please make your nominations detailed and provide as much information as possible. The panel looks for staff who achieve more than what is expected in their role. The deadline for the next award is Friday 11 December at 13.00.
