National Telephonists' Day – 8th/9th March 2019

ABOUT

IMG_4186The 6th Annual National Telephonists’ Day is to be held on 8th and 9th of March 2019. The event will be held each year on this date as part of an ongoing commitment to ‘celebrating professional operators’.

In 2018, switchboard management teams within Rapport and ComXo and many of our City of London based clients, organised a vast array of events for their teams. There were personalised t-shirts, telephone shaped cakes, tongue twisters, quizzes and endless tea, coffee and cupcake rounds throughout the day (and night!) to name but a few of the activities on offer! ComXo MD, Andrew Try worked a 24 hour shift to recognise his teams remarkable efforts, and even managed to visit some of their clients own switchboard teams armed with flowers, cakes and small gifts.

In 2017 Rapport began our partnership with Action on Hearing Loss who are a national charity helping people to confront deafness, tinnitus and hearing loss to live the life they choose. Representatives from the charity came and presented at sites across London to promote awareness of the charity and provided helpful tips to switchboard teams when communicating with people who are hard of hearing. During the day lots of activities took place with Raffle Prizes being donated to raise funds for this worthwhile cause and we’re delighted that we were able to present Action on Hearing Loss with a cheque for £1140.
