Four the past two years Splendid Hospitality Group which operates Hotel Indigo York have supported the homeless population in the city centre by delivering goulash, bread rolls and water.

In 2024 the Hungarian kitchen team led by Head Chef Peter Vincze prepared hot food and other team members from the hotel helped with distribution as the autumn weather gets colder.

In addition to delivering a hot meal for the homeless, SHG supports over 20 aid organisations in the York area alone including the Lord Mayor’s civic charities.

Nadeem Boghani, SHG’s Executive Vice Chairman, said: “Our incredible team members are always committed to helping the local community. The Indigo brand which we operate in partnership with IHG in York and Scotland is all about being at the heart of the neighbourhood. At Splendid Hospitality Group this matters to us because we believe hospitality and care extend beyond our hotel doors.”

SHG has four hotels within York itself, from budget to the only five-star hotel in the city.
