We are so incredibly proud! Thank you for sharing and celebrating this with us!

Congratulations to The Dordéan Suites of Chester on being recognized with Tourism HR Canada's Employer Impact Champion Award. TIANS/NSTHRC is pleased to celebrate this outstanding achievement.

The Dordéan Suites of Chester, a family-owned accommodation business in Chester, Nova Scotia, is rooted in connection, inclusion, and belonging. Featured in Tourism HR Canada’s Belong Inclusion in Action videos, they have worked with the advisory services to improve workplace accommodation and recruitment practices, and connected with job seekers through THRC’s service provider network. By investing in practical accommodations and creating meaningful employment opportunities, The Dordéan Suites has hired two people with disabilities and shown how even a small tourism business can make inclusion part of its everyday practice.

Our why. 💜

The ones who inspire us, help shape the Dordéan, and show the world what’s possible when people have opportunities and support to contribute in their own ways.

Being recognized as a Tourism HR Canada Belong Employer Impact Champion is an incredible honour. Seeing these two holding the award brings it right back to the heart of it all.

Meaningful work. A place to belong. Contributions that matter.

Our little team. Our biggest purpose. 💜 Tourism Chester Tourism Nova Scotia

Turns out, you can grow a lot in the woods. 💚

Flowers. Ideas. Opportunities. Friendships. Confidence. A sense of belonging.

Feeling especially thankful for all of it. Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at the Dordéan Suites. 💜💚💜
