OUR NOMINATION POLICY

Voluntary Organisations are given an annual nomination allowance that is set depending on the number of volunteers an organisation has. Allowances range from 2 to 12 – the nomination window runs from Jan-Dec and allowances automatically reset every January. Any untaken nominations cannot be carried over to the following year. Occasionally, Room to Reward are donated breaks on specific dates by our hotel partners. These breaks are then offered to shortlisted partners in the local area. These breaks are separate to regular R2R breaks and operate outside of the annual allowance. To be added to the shortlist for your area, please email joe@roomtoreward.org.

All nominated volunteers must have been in place for at least one year, not in a Trustee position and involved in a voluntary capacity only. This means that volunteers on official placements or involved through corporate partnerships, cannot be nominated. Part time staff who also volunteer are also unfortunately excluded.

R2R breaks are based on unsold rooms. All booking requests are subject to availability and requested dates must be outside of any restrictions outlined in the property’s profile on the booking platform. The standard R2R break offer is 2 nights, 2 people, b&b. Any different offering will be explained in the property’s profile. Volunteers must request their dates through the link provided or via the R2R team, not the hotel directly. Any issues with the booking, need for cancellations etc, must be communicated to R2R so we can liaise with the hotel on the volunteer’s behalf. No shows may be subject to a penalty fee.
