Sir Sir Mo Farah, Karren Brady and Candice Brown have been announced as ambassadors for Village Hotels, and will promote 'connection with local communities' as part of its new Village Green campaign.

Each celebrity ambassador has co-created a series of fitness, business and food and drink programmes with the chain, celebrating the opening of its 30th UK hotel this week, and Great British Bake Off star Brown commented 'This partnership will give me the chance to work with young people all over the UK and hopefully instil some of the same passion that I have for this industry'.
