“I’d like to study archaeology at uni and so this will look good on my personal statement. It’s also a good way to get work experience, as a lot of employers expect you to already have experience when applying.”

“The Spotlight Tour Guide program at Exeter Cathedral was absolutely essential to my career progression in the Heritage sector. The months I spent researching and subsequently delivering my customised tour on the Cathedral’s South Tower and its key memorials were not only great fun but also provided me with the necessary experience to draw in job interviews.”
