The New Inn leads the way in Shropshire

The New Inn is the first business in Shropshire to sign up to the national Schools Hospitality Project, an important education initiative which introduces young people to the hospitality industry.  The nationwide scheme helps pupils throughout the country understand the growing importance of the sector and also informs them about the many career paths it offers.

Jenny & Marcus Bean of The New Inn are pleased to support such an important initiative, particularly as so many young people go on to part-time or full-time employment in the hospitality sector. It is therefore vital that they understand how the UK now depends upon tourism, catering and other areas of the industry. Jenny & Marcus also support the project's emphasis on good customer service as a key ingredient of success in any hospitality-based enterprise.

 

The Schools Hospitality Project is delivered in partnership with teachers but is not a government initiative.  Its success is due to BII members across the UK.  BII is a national charity and the professional body for the licensed retail sector.  With over 15,000 members, it promotes high standards, good employment practice and social responsibility within the industry.

Cathie Smith, Director of BIIAB said, "We are very grateful to The New Inn for this support which allows us to help teachers in a practical way while also raising awareness of the hospitality sector.

"As the project builds, our aim is to help young people understand that with hard work,
a friendly approach and professional training, they can benefit greatly from a wide range of employment opportunities and, if they choose, go on to build an interesting and rewarding career in a thriving sector of the economy."

Patrick Gaffney, Director of the Schools Project added his own thanks to Jenny & Marcus Bean saying, “We can only make a difference in schools if we gain the support of the wider community.  I am delighted that The New Inn has decided to get involved and nominate The Corbet School for the project..”
