Last month marked the end of our summer SHINE volu Last month marked the end of our summer SHINE volunteering programme on Iona and Arvia where a number of fantastic shoreside colleagues worked alongside our incredible crew to ensure our guests first experiences were on point during our busy summer season. A fantastic example of working together as one team to deliver fantastic results.
 
We’ll shortly be recruiting volunteers for our Festive season so if you’re a shore based colleague and you’d like to get to know our ships, crew and guests a little better look out for more information in the weekly update.
