Put your thoughts on a future champion for Cornwall's tourism industry across by Sunday 11th January...

Anyone involved in tourism is being invited to take part in a survey to help shape a new, collaborative Destination Management Organisation (DMO) to champion the Duchy’s visitor economy. Food and drink play a vital role in tourism so it is critical that voices from agriculture, fishing, production, processing, hospitality, wholesale and retail are heard.

Following the loss of Visit Cornwall, businesses, tourism-related associations, tourist information centres and local councils are being asked what they want to see from a new DMO and how the organisation should be structured.

Working in partnership with Cornwall Council, the Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Economic Forum has appointed a small working group of representatives from the tourism sector to help produce the survey.

Feedback from the survey will be presented during an event at the Eden Project in late January, where industry leaders and sector representatives will come together to discuss the next steps in establishing the new organisation.
