Swanage Branch

I have been in Travel for 35 years, since the age of 15, when I started as a Saturday trainee, I have been working for Hays Travel since October 2013 and enjoy all the challenges presented. My favourite destinations include Antigua and Barbados, Abu Dhabi, The Hawaiian Islands, Australia and New Zealand. I am happy to travel anywhere, as any new challenges are always great going forward.

Let me introduce you to my team here at Swanage.  Alison is my Assistant Manager. She has been in this role since June 2015. Her favourite destinations include Corfu and Cyprus, where she has also lived and worked. 

We are a very busy branch with footfall, this includes a high volume of people on holiday and day trippers, our booking mix is very varied, this includes a high volume of Cruises, we book a high percentage of P&O/Cunard with the port of Southampton being so close by, we also book a high volume of passengers flying from Bournemouth Airport, we have been lucky that we now have Fly Be that commenced several routes from the Airport, complementing the Tui and Ryanair services, more choice !

Our branch recently held a Pub Quiz event and raised £540 in aid of Swanage Community Hospital.

We hold this event every year for the same cause and once again we were joined by our customers for another fantastic evening at Swanage Conservative Club. There was also a raffle to raise extra funds with the prizes that were generously donated by local businesses

Kevin, our branch manager said, ‘We would like to thank everyone that attended our event and also the businesses in our area for supporting us. Ali also done a great job as the Quiz Master!’

The funds raised will go towards some much-needed equipment for the hospital and it will benefit so many people in our community. We look forward to seeing you again next year!
