Attendant of the Year Awards
The Attendant of the Year Awards form part of the annual Loo of the Year Awards but relate specifically to the cleaning staff that looks after facilities, rather than the loos themselves.
While the range of star gradings and National Loo of the Year Awards and Trophies provide adequate recognition for the loos and their providers, it is the people who look after each facility – be they individual full time attendants, in-house cleaning teams or external cleaning contractors, who also deserve recognition. All attendants and/or cleaning staff will automatically be entered for an Attendant of the Year Award.
We need to know a few basic details about who cleans your Loo of the Year Awards entry/entries. Provided on the entry form, and Judging is carried out at the same time as the Loo of the Year Awards inspection and any cleaning staff seen at the time of the unannounced visit are deemed to represent the whole cleaning team.
There are a number of Attendant of the Year Award winners in England (including Isle of Man and the Channel Islands), Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, and a National Winner for each country.
