The Worshipful Company of Launderers has announced that the travelling scholarships for 2017 will take place in Denmark next spring. The hosts on this occasion will be Berendsen. Closing date is 15 December 2016.
Staying over for three nights on a Monday to Thursday, the successful applicants will visit several laundries. The Worshipful Company’s award will help cover costs of flights to Copenhagen, three nights’ hotel accommodation and food. Transport and hotel bookings will be organised by the sponsor.
The Worshipful Company of Launderers would like to hear from applicants from within the laundry and textile cleaning industries who are in a management or senior supervisory position and who their employer feels will benefit from the experience.
Applications forms can be requested from John C Shonfeld, Chairman, Education Committee, c/o Tibard Ltd, Tibard House, Broadway, Dukinfield, Cheshire, SK16 4UU (Email john@tibard.co.uk).
