Performance improvement business Grass Roots EventCom has announced the eleven winners of a place on a VIP trip to London through its company-wide 'Heroes' incentive.

Grass Roots EventCom runs an on-going values-based 'Exceeding Expectations' recognition programme for all employees where staff are nominated by managers or colleagues for exceeding their expectations in line with company values. Those nominated receive a thank you card, plus points on a stored-value reward card for exceptional effort. Those achieving the highest number of awards over the past fiscal year won a place on a VIP trip to London.

The winners, announced at an informal company get-together, are: Virginie Bonvalet, Charlotte Booth, Liz Gear, Sarah Green, Claire Heuser, Sue Johnson, Amanda Johnston, Raj Kapur, Kat Oakley, Ainsley Procter and Clare Starck.

The trip, taking place in September, will be hosted by Grass Roots' Managing Director Nick Bender and Deputy Chairman Graham Frazer and will give participants a taste of the Capital's highlife, with five-star accommodation, fine dining, spa treatments, visits to London's top attractions, including a West End Show plus a few secret VIP surprises.

Nick Bender, MD of Grass Roots commented: "These individuals have exceeded our expectations over the past year and now we want to exceed theirs. We have a fantastic programme lined up to reward them with a few days of luxury and, for those who are usually running events, the chance to experience perfect project execution from the other side!"
