In 2009, six-year-old Sam Pointon was appointed ‘Director of Fun’ by the National Railway Museum in York – fast-forward eight years and the teenager is back to take on a new ‘board’ role with a leading Yorkshire hotel.
The Grand Hotel & Spa, York – Yorkshire’s only AA 5-star hotel – has appointed 14-year-old Sam as its very own ‘Director Of Fun & Families’ and will lead a campaign to help children get the most out of their visits to York.
Sam’s first job as Director Of Fun & Families has been to produce a series of six video blogs revealing his top tips for children to do in York, including family-friendly places to eat, things to do for free, as well as historic York.
Sam will be a kid consultant for the hotel, helping with everything from menus and recipes, in-room entertainment and seasonal city guides, through to suggesting family-friendly activities and promotions.
Sam’s video blogs, available to view at www.thegrandyork.co.uk/director-of-fun-families include:
- Family Friendly Locations To Eat
- Free Days Out In and Around York
- York Must-See
- Things You Can Only Do In York
- Walks In And Around York
- Things About Historic York
