Whitbread Hotels and Restaurants has chosen WaterAid as its charity of the year, and aims to raise £1 million for it over the next two years.

Whitbread Hotels and Restaurants (WHR) is part of Whitbread plc, the UK’s largest hotel and restaurant group, which employs over 33,000 people in its 1,800 outlets across the UK.

WHR operates budget hotel chain Premier Inn and pub restaurants Beefeater, Brewers Fayre, Table Table and Taybarns. Last year it raised over £500,000 for its charity partners, with £150,000 of that raised by team members across the county.
