Tourism Street Ambassadors For Cobh

Street Ambassadors will be a team of people who will walk the Town Centre and will provide a warm welcome for visitors, provide reliable information and convey a pride in all of our town’s history, traditions and achievements. Apart from being roving tourist guides that will be able to provide tourists with invaluable local information on things to see and do, guided tours to partake in, attractions to visit, places to eat, drink and shop in, they will also take the time to chat to our visitors and provide the welcome and friendliness that Ireland and indeed Cobh is renowned for.

Ambassadors will work each shift in pairs on a totally voluntary basis. The Cobh Street Ambassadors will each receive training for the role that will include Personal and Communication skills, Familiarisation trips and outings, First Aid and basic foreign language training. As the Ambassadors are representing Cobh they will be well presented in a highly visible uniform.

Cobh Tourism is seeking applications from people who are civic minded and have the time to volunteer for this interesting and rewarding role. Those interested should email cobhtourism@gmail.com or contact Claire Cullinane on 087 2565728.
