Forest Green Rovers Football Club

Having a great day so far A Greener Future #GEI17 event, learning lots and meeting new people. Awards are later, FGR are up for 2, Greener Arena and Community Action Award. 🌱💚⚽️ #awards #events #sustainability

Stage is set for today's game, pitch looks fabulous, sun is shining, wishing the lads all the best. Food looks spectacular in hospitality, here are some great messages of feedback from guests this season so far, still time to book for the last remaining seven home games, please contact Debbi Scobell or use Seat Unique https://lnkd.in/ebpbXDfF We thoroughly enjoy the VIP dining experience at FGR, so much so we make a five hour round trip on match days •. The vegan food is delicious with lots of variety. The staff are so hospitable and helpful , we’ve got to know them on first name terms. The atmosphere at FGR is always welcoming , the most friendly football club we have ever visited .  Simon and Cathy My daughter, her friend and I really enjoyed the hospitality at the Eastleigh game last Saturday. All the staff were so friendly and couldn’t have been more helpful, especially in terms of managing my daughter’s friend’s allergies. We all enjoyed our meals – the crumble was my favourite! – and having a photo with the man of the match was a lovely way to end our experience. Just a quick mail to say how great the dining experience has been for me and Louie at FGR. To be honest I was worried how it would be for Louie in the Carol Embrey lounge and whether he would really enjoy it as many suites at other clubs are rigid / Kids are not involved in conversation, sometimes kids are not fully accepted into this kind of environment. At FGR it has been the complete opposite as all staff have been welcoming / friendly and sociable, at every game everyone has engaged on the mixed tables with me and Louie and it has really improved his confidence and communication skills as well.  Kids don't communicate enough at times especially with tablets / ipads and phones being used constantly so this is excellent. It still has the hospitality feel you want but also relaxed and friendly so everyone feels welcome regardless of age, nationality or background which is a credit to those involved.  The Food is great and there are items I would not usually try, make or order so it has opened my eyes a bit and has made me more aware of what I consume. Hospitality is all about a great experience and bringing all people together and at FGR this really is achieved. #matchday #events #hospitality #sustainable #vegan

Another great community cookalong delivered, inspiring families to learn to cook from scratch delicious plant based meals. This session saw the staff from both brands competing. Using one pan, meaning less energy and water being used, educating sustainability whilst having fun. Thanks to allmanhall for supporting these sessions. 💚⚽️🌱 #community #partnership #sustainability #education
