Onwards Norfolk Hospitality Training – Norwich, Great Yarmouth, King’s Lynn


We partnered with Norwich BID, King’s Lynn BID, and Great Yarmouth Town Centre Partnership to deliver Onwards Norfolk, a collaborative initiative providing free training and upskilling opportunities for hospitality businesses and their staff across Norfolk.

Starting in January 2022, we worked closely with Norfolk’s Business Improvement Districts to design and deliver a range of training programmes for those currently working—or seeking work—in the hospitality and leisure sector. The programme aimed to equip participants with the skills, experience, and qualifications needed to progress their careers or begin new ones in hospitality.

What it focussed on:

Over the course of the initiative, 632 people from Norwich, King’s Lynn, and Great Yarmouth benefited from tailored training, including:

  • Certified training courses providing recognised qualifications
  • Upskilling and retraining opportunities to enhance career prospects
  • Practical, hands-on learning designed to meet the needs of the local hospitality and leisure sectors

Whether participants were looking to upskill in their current roles, retrain for a new career path, or gain qualifications to enter the industry, the programme provided accessible and inclusive opportunities for professional development.
