JOURNEY TO A BETTER FUTURE…

with Hayes & Jarvis. As part of our commitment to promote responsible tourism, we have made our mission to help protect the environment and the people in those destinations you travel to with us.


OUR VISION…

has always been on providing unmistakable value for money, quality holidays in some of the most beautiful countries around the world and like you, we care about the people and places we see on our travels. We are proud to be part of TUI Travel PLC who believes we should enable people to explore and enjoy the world without harming it based on a commitment to sustainable development. While we acknowledge we have a long way to go on this journey, we recognise that the success of our business goes hand in hand with the way we treat our environment and people in our destinations.


ENCOURAGING SUSTAINABILITY IN TOURISM…

by working alongside the Federation of Tour Operators. We are leading the way and have started auditing our hotels with regards to their environmental and social impact. For the future, we will be able to recognise which are the most sustainable according to the Travelife sustainability system. So far, we are delighted to have found examples of actions in hotels like reducing the amount of energy and water they use, using locally produced food and making sure the people who work there have fair working conditions. The best performing hotels are given a Bronze, Silver or Gold Travelife award. Look out for these in our brochures and website.


JOIN US…

in creating great holidays now and in the future. You can help us in working hard to offset carbon emissions, protect the environment and support local communities in the places you love to visit by supporting our World Care Fund project. Book your holiday with Hayes & Jarvis and donate a pound each, and we'll match it - So together we can do our bit for the planet.

“We’re delighted to be sponsoring the ‘Best Green International Campaign’ award. At Hayes & Jarvis, we have made it our mission to help protect the environment and the people in those destinations you travel to with us. We’re particularly passionate about ‘water’ and have enjoyed a long-standing relationship with the clean water charity Just a Drop. The sustainable supply of water underpins economic growth, food and energy security. The most effective way to meet the needs of future generations is to educate them about water. Water is the next carbon. We must focus on the scarcity of water in the same way as we are focusing on our carbon footprint. In my view global economic pressures and climate change will mean that before long we will all need to measure our water footprint”.
