A WARM welcome will greet visitors to the city after 230 people completed the Southampton Welcomes training programme.
The programme was run by Tourism South East to help local businesses benefit from the increasing number of cruise ships that come through the port. The newly trained staff will receive certificates in a ceremony at Dockgate 4 Bar and Grill, Southampton, on Thursday at 5pm.
Daily Echo editor Ian Murray, pictured, will be among the speakers at the event.
