Tourism is at the heart of the South Hams and West Devon regions. From independently-owned holiday rentals and cafés to hotels and visitor attractions, the tourism economy supports jobs, communities and the character of our area.
Business Information Point, are working in partnership with South Hams District and West Devon Borough Councils to deliver an in-depth study of the visitor economy across both districts.
The aim is simple but powerful: to understand what’s really happening on the ground, identify the biggest barriers facing tourism businesses, and ensure future investment and support genuinely meets local needs.
Your insight, experience and voice are essential to making this happen.
If your business is part of the visitor economy, there are three simple ways to contribute — choose the option that suits you best.
1) Complete their online survey
The online survey is a quick and easy way to tell them about the challenges you face and what support would make the biggest difference to your business and your area.
2) Attend a tourism symposium
Join one of their Tourism Symposium events, which will shed light on the barriers within the sector and establish ideas around future investment, business advice, and initiatives to support growth. This is an excellent opportunity to make your voice heard. Attendees will be encouraged to share their views and take a proactive role in discussions with fellow tourism businesses and stakeholders. The South Hams event will be held on 2nd March – 10:00 am to 2:30 pm at Follaton House Plymouth Road, Totnes.
3) Request a one-to-one consultation
If you would prefer a more in-depth conversation, you can request a one-to-one consultation by phone, video call or in person. This is an opportunity to talk openly from your business perspective, the pressures you’re experiencing, and the kind of support you believe would be most valuable.
