Student Testimonials
“I aim to enter the events and hospitality sector upon my graduation, and have found my work placement at Canterbury Cathedral Lodge invaluable in encouraging me to continue to work towards this goal. My role was very practical and I completed tasks such as; researching potential clients, creating a menu selector for the New Years Eve Gala night and taking calls from potential clients to discuss their individual requirements for a conference or party night. I was also fortunate to shadow a Co-ordinator on a Wedding Reception at the Lodge where we completed all final checks, greeted guests and even built their wedding cake out of doughnuts!”

“I have enjoyed the variety of tasks that have been set for me and feel I have really improved my organisational skills, which will be of huge benefit in my future law career…I helped the operations team with an afternoon tea and really enjoyed seeing the work we do behind the scenes put into practice. I will also have the chance to shadow the decorator for a wedding next week, which I’m really looking forward to!”
