Tourism Awards deadline extended
18th May 2018
With the pressures of Half term and GDPR deadlines, we have just responded to industry requests by announcing a short extension in the deadline for entry into this year’s Tourism Awards until midnight on 5 June.
In addition, there are further extensions possible:
- For entries into the Outstanding Customer Service and Tourism Event categories there is a later deadline of 22 Aug – but please advise asap if you plan to enter these, so we can arrange judge visits
If you have already submitted entries, please take the opportunity to review your submissions and resubmit if you wish – or share your draft with colleagues to see if you’ve missed anything.
One of the interesting outcomes of the Workshops to date has been businesses realising that there are categories worth considering in addition to the most obvious ones. Please therefore consider all categories when making your submissions, including:
- Access & Inclusivity
- Responsible, Ethical & Sustainable Tourism (amended from the former Sustainable category)
- Tourism Innovation and New Business (new category this year)
- International and Inbound Tourism (if you are welcoming visitors from overseas)
- Dog Friendly
- Wildlife Friendly (Cornwall only)
- Age Friendly (Somerset only)
