If you are passionate about Norwich, its cultural heritage and all its other remarkable assets, join the Norwich Ambassadors Scheme and help spread the word about our fine city.

Norwich’s Heritage Economic and Regeneration Trust (HEART) in conjunction with VisitNorwich Ltd. are running two sessions of the hugely popular Norwich Ambassador Scheme courses. If you would like to be a Norwich ambassador, sign-up for either Tuesday 3^rdSeptember or Thursday 14^th November 2013 (both 2pm-4.30pm) at The Guildhall. Places are limited and on a first come, first served basis, but there are still a few places left for people who want to help champion the city.

The sessions are interactive and provide an overview of Norwich’s tourism industry, its cultural heritage as well as current events and festivals. Participants will receive refreshments, Norwich Ambassador badge, window sticker, certificate and a delegate pack to take away with useful general information about Norwich and the iconic Norwich 12 buildings. Trained delegates also receive free passes and money-off at some of Norwich’s key attractions and benefit from an exclusive series of Ambassador+ events and talks.

The Ambassador Scheme formed part of HEART’s SHAPING 24 project until 2013, a cultural heritage and tourism initiative that took forward the Norwich 12 project with the Belgian city of Ghent. Due to the huge success of the Norwich Ambassador Scheme, with over 300 people trained, HEART have decided to continue the sessions to encourage more people to champion their fine city.

Prices per person (inc. VAT) are £50 for commercial companies, £37 for charities / small businesses (10 staff or less) and £25 for individuals. Please note that unfortunately the Guildhall is not accessible for wheelchair users.

Michael Loveday, Chief Executive of HEART, said: “Norwich and its wider region not only have a cultural heritage resource of international stature but also an incomparable package of shopping, entertainment, leisure pursuits and events. We have been massively impressed by the pride and enthusiasm exhibited so far by people attending these courses and have been delighted that we have been able to focus that passion into articulating the ‘Norwich product’ to the visiting public through Ambassadors. We would encourage anyone with an interest and pride in Norwich to join the Scheme, explore Norwich’s hidden gems and share their knowledge to inspire others.”

Places for the Norwich Ambassador Scheme are limited and are allocated on a first come first served basis. To book, please contact Madeleine Coupe on [email protected] or 01603 559570 – please state which date you are interested in.
