A Muncaster Castle worker has been named as a finalist in a national competition to find the unsung hero of England’s tourism industry.
VisitEngland’s Tourism Superstar competition, now in its 13th year, seeks out champions working in tourism who provide the most memorable experiences for visitors, as well as showcasing the variety and quality of England’s tourism offer and destinations.
The 10 finalists from across England were selected out of dozens of submissions from employers and destinations across England covering all areas of tourism.
The finalists go on to compete for the title of Tourism Superstar, decided by a public vote and run on VisitEngland’s website.
Hannah Clapp was nominated for her dedication and going the extra mile for visitors to the castle.
People will be able to vote for their favourite superstar on VisitEngland’s website from mid-February, when the competition officially opens. Voting runs until the end of English Tourism Week, which runs from March 14 to March 23.
VisitEngland director Andrew Stokes said: “We have the most fantastic, passionate people working in England’s tourism industry who continually raise the customer service bar. We congratulate the 10 finalists and wish them every success in the competition, though of course they are all superstars already.”
