Whitbread was nominated in five categories in their inaugural Inclusion Awards —and proudly took home two awards.
Whitbread’s Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) team, was named EDI Team of the Year—a testament to its ongoing commitment to advancing equity, diversity, and inclusion in all that Whitbread does.
Yasmin Mukhida-Olushola, Premier Inn Head of Brand Marketing, was awarded Role Model for Inclusion – recognising a gold standard for inclusive leadership.
The awards signify Whitbread’s long-standing commitment to D&I and dedication to fostering an inclusive environment.
Katie Mellor, Talent, Development & Inclusion Director said: “These awards are deeply meaningful and it is wonderful to be recognized for the journey Whitbread is on. This recognition is for everyone who has championed, encouraged, and supported us on this path—thank you.
Here’s to continuing our work, growing together, and making an even more meaningful impact!”
