Taking responsibility for the environment and local community has been an important part of the Rezidor Hotel Group broader commitment to sustainable development for many years. In 2001, this commitment was fortified and placed within the scope of a programme called Responsible Business (RB). Each hotel has a unique RB Action Plan covering areas such as community outreach, environmental improvement, employee well-being and health and safety.
Our hotels are engaged with both local charity groups and the Rezidor Hotel Group corporate international charity organisation, the World Childhood Foundation. The mission of Childhood is to defend the rights of the child and to promote better living conditions for vulnerable and exploited children at risk all over the world.

Elegast
The Radisson Blu Park Lane Hotel in Antwerp helps the children's home Elegast Conscience. Elegast is a home for children unable to live at home because their parents cannot take care of them anymore, due alcohol problems, parents in prison, etc. To brighten the lives of these children, this hotel in Antwerp, Belgium helps where and when it can, through projects like bringing a cake at each of the children's birthdays or collecting clothes for them, since the government has a very small budget available for the children of Elegast.
Recently we took notice of the fact that the government cut Elegast's budget even further, with consequences that the children of Elegast are no longer able to buy products like sodas, desserts or snacks. Shocked that this situation can exist in a wealthy country like Belgium, we encourage and seek your help. The granted products will solely be used to the benefit of the children of Elegast.
