Caterer and Hotelkeeper – 31250
NIGHT OWLS win award
The flexibility of Lancashire painting firm Darbyshire & Tasker of Newton-le-Willows in repainting the restaurant at the Belfry Hotel in Wishaw, Warwickshire, has won the company Leyland Painter of the Year Award in the catering contract category.
The firm, which carried out all the repainting at night, had to wait until the last diner had finished before moving in the ladders and brushes and working through the night. The job had to be done quietly, to not wake residents, and the equipment was removed before the first guests sat down for breakfast.
