Volunteers play a vital role in supporting the tourism and hospitality sector across Kent. By welcoming volunteers into your team, your business can benefit from their enthusiasm, unique skills, and valuable local knowledge. Their contribution often leads to more personalised and memorable guest experiences. Plus, they can help with everything from front-of-house roles to behind-the-scenes support, allowing your team to focus on core operations and in turn, this can reduce operational costs and increase overall efficiency.
Working with volunteers also helps build meaningful connections with your local community and many volunteers become passionate ambassadors, sharing their positive experiences and helping to promote your business through word-of-mouth. Their dedication often translates into long-term support and advocacy for your organisation, whether it’s students, career changers, or retirees, volunteers bring fresh perspectives and energy. Start welcoming volunteers today and discover the positive impact they can have on your business.
We’re also looking to share inspiring stories from across Kent, whether you’re a volunteer who’s had a rewarding experience or a business that’s benefited from the support of volunteers, we want to hear from you. These stories help shine a light on the positive impact of volunteering and can encourage others to get involved. If you’ve got a story to tell, we’d love to feature it on our website and social media channels. Sharing your experience can help celebrate the vital role volunteers play in our industry and showcase the strength of our visitor economy community. If you are interested then please get in touch with us.
