Jenny Jones
Tour Co-ordinator
However, the travel bug doesn’t go away and I went back to work for a sports travel company organising mainly rugby, hockey and netball tours for schools to Europe. I was fortunate enough to be sent to many of the European destinations our groups visited, and this was a great advantage when advising nervous Tour Leaders!
After 17 years, I decided to venture to pastures new when a great opportunity came my way to work at Venatour. There is plenty of variety in the job but mainly I am involved in arranging tours for schools travelling to the UK for a sports or cultural tour and sometimes a combination of both! I certainly know a lot more about arranging cricket fixtures than previously!
Netball was my sport at school along with lacrosse and hockey but these days an International at Twickenham is very much enjoyed. My sporting highlight must be finding myself standing next to Jonny Wilkinson in a Twickenham food shop just before the 2003 Rugby World Cup and having a nice chat with him about England’s expectations!! What a hero!
