Visit Lincoln Businesses Inspired!

 

Thank you Katie & Angie so much for the session on Friday. I was really inspired by the day & thought you delivered the session in a great way – it had impact, was memorable and also really practical!

I have already reflected many times on the content & your stories – and what we can do in Lincoln to ensure we are supporting families like yours who just want a great day out/holiday.

On behalf of Visit Lincoln & all of our partner businesses – a huge thank you.

Emma Tatlow, Visit Lincoln Partnership Manager.

Marketing Birmingham Taking the Lead in Accessible Tourism

Becky Frall, Policy and Development Manager for Marketing Birmingham attended our recent ‘Access For All’ training day and has fed back to us.

“I will let fellow destination practitioners and hospitality businesses know that the understanding resulting from this training will generate a desire to implement practical solutions to access needs and empower all staff to attend with kindness and courtesy to the inclusion of disabled visitors, resulting in the very apex of quality in customer service. Getting this right will generate a loyal repeat market and strong word of mouth recommendations, impacting positively on their bottom line. I will highly recommend your training services to our network in the city, and to fellow destination managers.  Thank you so much for such a well-rounded, enjoyable and enlightening day.  I look forward to seeing you and Matt again.”

We look forward to meeting up soon, Becky!

Visits Unlimited were delighted to meet with Access Champ’s Arnold Ferrell this week.  Sharing ideas and knowledge is the key to progress.

The accessible tourism market is growing and changing at great pace. It’s essential to work collaboratively with partners to create the most robust business model and offer great services that will stand the test of change and meet the needs of the customers we serve.
