Events 29 maltatoday, Sunday, 8 March 2015 GasanMamo supports 'Valletta's' Holy Week exhibition Crunch your way to healthier eating Apples are one of the most widely consumed fruits. Not only are ap- ples very versatile, but they're excep- tionally healthy too. Consuming an apple a day may actually help keep the doctor away. An apple's skin in particular contains high levels of antioxidants keeping a number of illnesses at bay. Apples are also nature's toothbrushes, resulting in brighter, whiter teeth. Apples from New Zealand have an intense flavour and texture. JAZZ apples are crisp, crunchy and one that everyone will want to eat. JAZZ apples are known for being the perfect snack, with apples re- maining delicious and crunchy for weeks. JAZZ apples are also great for cooking as they hold their shape and their crunch as they impart their flavour throughout a dish. JAZZ is being grown by selected master orchardists in a number of different areas. JAZZ apples are available all year-round, allowing apple fans to find an apple that delivers the crunchiest bite and tangy-sweet flavour of a just-picked orchard apple all year round. JAZZ apples are being distrib- uted locally by Fruitland Co. ltd. for more information contact us on 2339 2343. Nothing fuels a corporate incen- tive quite like the promise of a fully inclusive trip to an exotic overseas destination. And this is what a group of ten of the company's high- est achievers for 2014 were treated to in the latest annual incentive ex- ercise organized by Frank salt Real estate earlier this year. Known for its extravagance and disdain for rational limits, Dubai was the chosen destination for this year's incentive trip. YOU name it, Dubai has it. Or if it doesn't have it, it's building it. Or if it's not build- ing it, it's dredging up an island to put it on. The busiest of the seven United Arab emirates, it is growing so fast that if you blink, you'll miss the latest superlative. It is home to the world's tallest buildings, larg- est aluminum plant, longest bridge, biggest mall, and the likes — all of which, incidentally, are about to be usurped any day now by a mightier one. The team travelled to Dubai, all expenses paid, where they got to enjoy some of the mesmerizing wonders that this haven has to of- fer. They were treated to five-star luxury all the way, dinners at lav- ish restaurants, off-roading in the desert, a private suite for the horse races, cruising on the Dubai river and even skiing in the Dubai ski Mall! The trip included brainstorming sessions, key meetings and plan- ning exercises – all of which will be relayed to the rest of the Frank salt team in the coming weeks as part of the company's on-going develop- ment strategy. These were also held in private dining rooms at iconic destina- tions, including level 125 of the Burj Khalifa towering over the Dubai city landscape, at a private beach- front area of the sheraton Jumeirah beach and at the Meydan Race- course, hosting some of the worlds' most famous horse racing events. These meetings covered several topics and operational areas. As- pects discussed included the im- provement of the customer experi- ence for clients buying or renting a property through Frank salt Real estate, as well as the provision of a more comprehensive service to ven- dors and landlords who entrust the company with their property. The idea driving this annual in- centive initiative is to select peo- ple from the various tiers within the company, including managers, consultants, sales and letting staff, administrative personnel and sec- retaries, and to reward them with an incredible vacation. This also encourages them to feed their ide- as into the general running of the company, helping it to constantly grow and improve. This year's team was composed of Company Director Grahame salt, property sales Consultants Dylan Micallef, Josianne DeGaetano and John Middleton, letting Consult- ants edward Aquilina and Matthew Buttigieg, Branch secretary Mar- celle Mercieca, Branch Managers Omar Xuereb, Marie Grech and patrick Xuereb and HR Manager sandra Aquilina. "It really was the experience of a lifetime for the people who at- tended," stated Grahame salt upon return to Malta, "offering a good element of fun and extravagance, coupled with plenty of meetings that align with our recently-un- veiled strategy. It was fantastic to share ideas in a relaxed environ- ment with our excellent team and develop a deeper understanding of our client and team-member needs. "And, as the result of the discus- sions in Dubai, a number of concepts will be formulated and implement- ed as part of our strategy and vision for 2015 and beyond. everyone had so much to give to the company and we love to listen to new ideas from the people 'on the ground'." GasanMamo will once again support an exhibition organ- ised during the coming Holy Week. last year, the company supported an exhibition of 18 'life size' statues organised by the Mifsud family at Bir Miftuħ Chapel in Gudja. This time, GasanMamo will endorse a display organised by Grupp Mejda tal-Appostli – Mellieħa; a group that was established 35 years ago. For the previous years, this exhibition has been set up at the Mellieħa parish Centre, but this time round the group have accepted an invitation by the Minister of Family and social policy, Dr Michael Farrugia to set up this exhibit at the Min- istry's office in Valletta. Gas- anMamo will team up with the same Ministry and the Mellieħa local Council for the organisation of this exhibition. enthusiasts of Holy Week statues will have a unique chance to view this brilliant presentation, in our capital city for the first time. The ex- hibition will be open as from Tuesday 24 March till Friday 3 April. As part of its efforts to strengthen its quality assurance procedures and related structures, CareMalta is collaborating with two acclaimed elderly care companies in the UK; somerset Care and Cornwall Care. As a result, CareMalta's Quality Assurance Manager, paul pace has recently participated in an inten- sive training programme hosted by these two UK companies. The training programme focused most- ly on Quality Assurance systems and processes. pace had the opportunity to visit a number of elderly care Home ad- ministered by somerset Care which runs 31 nursing and residential care homes and Cornwall Care with 16 nursing and care homes. CareMalta's representative met various officials and directors of both companies who together spoke of the importance that every com- pany should give a high level of at- tention to quality and the produc- tion process of every home. This overseas experience, gave CareMal- ta the opportunity not only to learn further, but also to exchange infor- mation on procedures and practices which the company adheres to. "Caremalta's residents are at heart and that is why it promotes heavily the quality in care, the services pro- vided to its clients and the excellent environment it offers through its homes", commented pace.
