Are you proud of your city? Do you want to share the joy of Norwich with visitors? The Norwich Ambassador scheme will be training more people to become champions of Norwich, helping tourists and locals appreciate the fantastic history and culture of the city, writes Rowan Mantell.

The scheme is a chance for people working in areas as diverse as hospitality, information points, taxi driving and the market, and anyone else keen to broaden their Norwich knowledge.It is run by Norwich HEART, the Heritage and Regeneration Trust, with VisitNorwich, to reinforce a culture of pride and enthusiasm in Norwich, and help provide high quality, accurate information about the heritage and culture of the city.

Ambassadors get a pack of information to take away, plus free passes and discounts – and a badge, window sticker and certificate to announce their new status.

The next course will be held on Thursday, June 25, 1.30pm-4.30pm, with another opportunity to train on September 23. Courses cost £25 for individuals, £37 for charities and businesses with fewer than 10 staff and £50 for commercial companies.
