The Albion Foundation are delighted to announce that Mercure Birmingham West Hotel have joined the Albion family as a new partner at the Foundation.

With the aim of making a difference to people's lives in the community, specifically supporting young people with disabilities and learning difficulties within the local area, the Mercure Birmingham West partnership will help develop the Foundation's disability sport programme.

Mercure Birmingham West is located in the heart of West Bromwich, ideal for leisure and business stays. The hotel is situated just off the M5, less than five miles from Birmingham City Centre and only a stone's throw from the Hawthorns. 

The hotel features 17 versatile and recently renovated meeting rooms, ideal for meetings, conference and events, with all rooms equipped with new furniture and the latest ClickShare audio-visual technology. Other facilities also include an indoor pool, gym, sauna, steam room, restaurant and bar.

Sebastien Brunet, General Manager at Mercure Birmingham West Hotel, commented: "Our partnership with The Albion Foundation is a unique opportunity to make a difference within the local community and support those in need around us. As a local business ourselves, it is crucial to be able to support the local community and the businesses within the local area but more importantly make a difference to people's lives.

"As a business employing a number of team members, the well-being of all individuals within our business is at the forefront of any good performance. Promoting active lifestyles, creating a positive mental health, increasing confidence and improving positive behaviour is the key to drive employees' engagement and sustained business performance. In other words, it is all about the people within the business.

"As such, our partnership with The Albion Foundation gives us the opportunity to support young people with disabilities and learning difficulties, to develop new and existing skills as well as develop confidence which can be applied to their day to day lives and help to raise awareness of hidden disabilities and learning difficulties within our community.

"Being part of the Albion family is the start of an exciting journey and I am personally very proud to be able to make a difference."   

Jonathan Ward, Deputy Director of The Albion Foundation, said: "We're delighted to link up with the team at Mercure Birmingham West Hotel and bring them on board at The Albion Foundation as a partner. They've already shown brilliant enthusiasm in supporting our disability sports programme, as well as our Post-16 football and education set-up.

"The hotel is an excellent local business, with a desire to support the local community and surrounding areas, helping to highlight and support those with hidden disabilities and learning difficulties. We're excited to join forces and I'm looking forward to working together."
