The Historic Dockyard Chatham has been awarded a prestigious Gold award from VisitEngland in the annual Attraction Accolades for the quality of its visitor experience. 

Chatham Historic Dockyard Trust chief executive Richard Morsley says: “Along with our charitable objectives of “learning” and “preservation”, Chatham Historic Dockyard Trust’s philosophy is excellence in all that we do. As a visitor attraction and museum, we aim to provide an outstanding experience across all aspects of our business. This is the fourth time we have had the delight of receiving VisitEngland’s Gold award and it is testament to the fantastic team at The Historic Dockyard Chatham who are committed to delivering the highest standard of service to everyone that comes through our doors.” 

Deirdre Wells, chief executive, Visit Kent, and Trustee, Chatham Historic Dockyard Trust, adds: “The Historic Dockyard Chatham is one of the jewels in Kent’s tourism crown. This is not just because of the fantastic exhibitions and incredible maritime heritage but the wonderful and welcoming staff who do so much to provide an exceptional visitor experience. It is no surprise that this world-class customer service has been recognised by VisitEngland.
