Interview: Robin Sheppard, Bespoke Hotels - Duration: 4:27.

Since our launch in 2016 we've managed to gain a lot more traction in terms of

the publicity that the competition first engendered so we had over 120 entries in

year one, which wasn't bad from a standing start, 21 on the shortlist

and then six on a very short list. We have three winners of various

categories, and a total of £30,000 went out to them, and we managed to give

work to the out-and-out winners - a combination of a company called Motion

Spot and Ryder Architecture. They're now helping with the design of a new

build project in Manchester which I think will be a real clarion cry for

what can be done with a bit more imagination into the disabled spaces in

a hotel. We've managed to talk to a number of stakeholders, so Channel 4

have come on board and enabled us to have the launch party for this year's

competition in their headquarters, which is a stunning place because the

facilities are so anticipative of disabled people's needs. We've had a

number of notable sponsors on board, not least Dyson who got behind the campaign

as well, and that's helped us particularly in terms of moving away

initially from just a design through architecture to design through

the Design Council and design through companies who are excellent at design.

We've expanded now to five prizes from three this year. A little bit like the

football season we've kicked off in September of 2017, with the winning

period at the end of April 2018. We're going back to the House of Lords

to announce the winners, which is a great spot. However it is probably one of the

most difficult buildings in Britain for someone who's disabled to get in or out

of, but we like a challenge! I'm delighted that Penny Mordaunt, who is

the Minister for the Disabled has come on board and is now right behind the

scheme. We have various notes of support from Lord Rogers, the architect, as well as Alan Stanton

who in his own right is an outstanding architect, but is disabled. Celia Thomas

remains the main champion of the cause, she herself being restricted to a

mobility scooter, and we've started to work with other industry bodies like

Blue Badge Style and Fiona Jarvis who I think have been doing a fantastic job

in rewarding hotels who have made a difference. Our scheme is slightly

different in that we're trying to incentivise and reward the designers of

hotels, to think ahead so it becomes automatic

rather than reaction, and that's where we're currently sitting.

Well, to my make great shock but utter delight, RIBA and the Design Council

between them have now managed to take this competition truly international and

we just had our first interest from Canada and Croatia - a little bit of

alliteration there - which is great. If Crete would just join in we'd have

the full set. So I'm hopeful that we'll still get a lot of support from the

domestic market and if we can start to reach the far corners of the earth then

we're going to get a much higher and greater breadth of competition entries. I

think one of the nicest things for the winners from last year, all three of them,

was the work and commissions that they have picked up as a result of the

profile that the award scheme has given them, and particularly the monies that

have been used and how sensibly they've been used to encourage and nurture additional

new members of staff into their teams for the special aim of catering to the

disabled. I think the statistic is something like 43% of able-bodied guests

when offered a disabled room at check in say 'No, I insist on an able-bodied room'.

That's a sad indictment of humanity and it's a systemic problem

I would like to avoid if we possibly can.

Maldives hotel offers 'Instagram Butler' for perfect pics - Duration: 3:36.

Now there's no excuse for bad holiday pics! Maldives hotel offers an 'Instagram Butler' to help guests take perfect photos (and the results are stunning)

The advent of social media has heaped pressure on holidaymakers to take better pictures.

So one five-star venue in the Maldives has offered - in whats possibly a world first - some help, in the form of Instagram butlers.

 These are knowledgeable team members who will show guests the very best places to take photographs and guide them around Instagram Trails, itineraries that take in some of the prime spots for envy-inducing image creation, from restaurants to dreamy atolls.

The hotel in question is the five-star Conrad Hilton Resort on the island of Rangali.

And the results, as MailOnline Travel reveals, are rather effective.

For photographers hoping to capture the magical 'golden hour', a term used to describe the period shortly after sunrise or before sunset, the 'Instagram Butler' will teach guests how to perfect that dream shot, with factors such as the optimum time of day and the best position to pinpoint their phones or cameras taken into consideration.

Guests can also take a yoga class directed by the resort's resident scholar, where theyll be taught the best poses to capture on camera.

The butlers also reveal how to take great shots in the hotels world-first all-glass undersea restaurant, Ithaa.

Other photographic activities include watching and capturing shooting stars, shooting food with celebrity chef Jereme Leung and framing atolls on an island-hopping tour.

To prove how effective the service is, the hotel has released photographs taken by guests who used it.

One, Alison Wright, snapped a woman balancing along a palm trees trunk, just a few feet above the waves.

Another Instagram Butler-generated shot is of a bikini-clad beauty relaxing on an Undholi - a traditional Maldivian swing - whilst gazing out over the Indian Ocean, which stretches before her.

A third snap shows the silhouette of a woman leaping into the skyline of a bright-orange sunset, while another captures a dramatic yoga pose.

Theres also a fetching snap of restaurant Ithaa.

Together, the photographs offer proof that a little direction goes a long way.
