our brands. This year, we’ve launched the InterContinental Planet Trekkers Children’s Menu developed by celebrity chef Theo Randall and leading children’s food expert book author Annabel Karmel MBE, and we most recently announced the partnership with Nutrition Australia to develop a kids’ menu for Holiday Inn.

Getting this energy by eating the right foods in the correct proportions can help boost memory, prevent lethargy and encourage productivity. Working with Crowne Plaza Hotels & Resorts is a great opportunity to support guests and help them to stay productive and energised throughout the day.”

She has also worked on campaigns with the Australian Government and brands like Blackmores, Australia’s leading brand for natural health solutions, Weight Watchers, an international company offering weight loss solutions and high-performance blender, Vitamix.

There are currently nine Crowne Plaza hotels across Australia and 68 across the Asia, Middle East and Africa region (excluding Greater China), with 16 more hotels due to open over the next three to five years.
