The People First Hospitality Programme

Our Hospitality Programme gives learners opportunities for real work experience whilst gaining accredited qualifications related to working in the hospitality sector.

How Does It Work?

Our learners work alongside dedicated Job Coaches who support them through their qualifications while gaining real world experience.

Learners will gain work experience through our following departments:

  • Conference Centre
  • Riverbank
  • Kitchen
  • Café

The Hospitality Programme is a supportive, but demanding environment which provides learners a safe space to develop work skills and knowledge. 


The Programme offers the experience of being part of a diverse team where everyone’s contributions count and are important in the running of our conference centre and café.

Our values shape everything we do
