Healthy You –
Healthy World! TIME Hotels expands wellness offerings across UAE properties
UAE-based
hospitality group introduces variety of new fitness and wellness activities for
both in-house guests and staff members as well as new health conscious menu
UAE-headquartered
hospitality company, TIME Hotels,
has launched a new health and wellness initiative - ‘Healthy You. Healthy
World’ – across all of its properties in line with its Tomorrow’s World
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme.
As part of the
initiative, TIME Hotels has expanded its offering of fitness and wellness
activities, introduced a new health conscious menu and participated in a wide
variety of activities to help promote healthy lifestyles for both employees and
in-house guests.
At TIME Oak
Hotel & Suites, an aqua fitness programme for female senior citizens has
been introduced, taking place daily from 7am to 9am; while at TIME Ruby Hotel
Apartments boxing classes are taking place twice a week for members and
in-house guests; and at TIME Grand Plaza swimming lessons are available for
both adults and children – taking place seven days a week between 8am and 9am.
Mohamed Awadalla,
CEO, TIME Hotels, said: “Every year TIME Hotels participates in a range of
activities to raise awareness of several important regional and global
initiatives while also taking the opportunity to support the health and
wellness of both our employees and of course our guests.
“Everything
we do is focused on having a positive impact and creating a legacy which generations
will be able to learn from for many years to come.”
Adding
to this, Mugs & Munch, a relaxed pastry café and lobby lounge, has created
a new healthy menu with a focus on fresh and locally sourced ingredients.
Featuring a variety of healthy munch bowls, freshly baked flat bread sandwiches
and delicious pastries as well as an extensive tea and coffee menu, fresh fruit
smoothies, mocktails and cold soft beverages.
Located
in the lobby of TIME Oak Hotel & Suites, Mugs & Munch is the perfect
venue for those looking for a quick coffee and an on-the-go nutritious snack, a
relaxed catch-up with a friend or an informal business meeting.
Awadalla
said: “Creating a menu which offers interesting and healthy food options, with
a focus on fresh and local ingredients, is incredibly important to us as we
continuously work to broaden our F&B offerings at TIME Oak Hotel &
Suites.
“The
idea behind the Mugs & Munch menu is to deliver fresh and delicious dishes
for those who don’t want to compromise on taste – but still want to be healthy.”
TIME
Hotels has also strengthened the positive impact it is making on both employees
and guests’ fitness and wellness through an impressive calendar of Corporate
Social Responsibility (CSR) activities.
In
line with the ‘Healthy You. Healthy World’ campaign, TIME has painted
motivational health and wellness quotes on each step between the ground floor
and first floor in each of its properties to encourage staff and guests to use
the stairs instead of the elevator wherever possible.
Earlier
this year, TIME hosted a Yoga Day for both staff and in-house guests and as
part of World Health Day, TIME conducted a health check-up, in collaboration
with Call Doctor. In all hotels, staff members and in-house guests had access
to a free check-up and consultation with a doctor, as well as a training
session on the subject of ‘healthy lifestyle’.
Awadalla
concluded: “Our overall aim is to promote a healthy and balanced lifestyle and
add value to both our in-house guests and our employees’ lives through enhanced
offerings at each of our properties, education and employee engagement
activities.”
