UK’s National Spa Week set for 2-6 November 2015
National Spa Week, the UK SpaAssociation’s annual awareness week, will this year run from 2-6 November, with an aim to encour- age the uninitiated into spas with events and special offers, such as discounted treatments or gifts with purchase. The Association reports that only 8 per cent of the UK population visits spas, and aims to raise that number to 10 per cent by 2017. Te promotion has a fundraising element
as well, as operators are encouraged to sup- port Macmillan Cancer Support during the week. Individual spas and salons will choose how they fundraise, though the UK Spa Association is offering a range of suggestions. Details:
