In celebration of the spirit of Ramadan and the seasonal generosity of the month, The Rezidor Hotel Group's Radisson Blu and Park Inn by Radisson properties in Dubai will distribute juice, water and fruit to construction workers in Dubai, throughout the Holy Month. The weekly distributions are sponsored by Al Ain Dairy, and will continue from June 9 to the end of August.

This community initiative is inspired by Carlson Rezidor's Responsible Business programme. The Think Together pillar of the programme ensures the company is committed to upholding the highest standard of responsibility, and is encouraged to give back to the community socially and economically.

"Rezidor has proudly supported the UAE's construction workers throughout the year, through various activities organised in conjunction with leading authorities," said Bob Busman, Regional Responsible Business Coordinator Middle East, TheRezidor Hotel Group. . "With the assistance of our partners, Al Ain Dairy, it is our pleasure to give back to the community during Ramadan and throughout the summer, with a 13 week programme. We aim to distribute to 250 workers, once a week."
