quality in tourism - Covid-19 useful resources

COVID-19 useful resources

We are working with partners across the tourism & hospitality industry to support businesses at this extraordinary time.

There are a number of stellar organisations, each with an interest in a particular sector from serviced apartments and the sharing economy to B&B's and self-catering establishments. Partners such as UKHospitality, Tourism Alliance, Tourism Management Institute for destination marketers, Professional Association of Self-Caterers (PASC) and the B&B Association are all representing the businesses within their sector. We are working alongside these partners to act as a conduit, unify and amplify the message to Government (where appropriate), whilst also supporting businesses through this time to ensure that they can thrive on the other side.

Please take a look below at some of the useful resources available to you and please do get in touch if there is anything we can help with.

GOV.UK: The best source of up to date information at this present time is the Government website. With information on grants available, furlough payments for staff and how to protect yourself and your workforce from COVID-19.

PASC: For businesses within the self-catering industry, we are working with the Professional Association for Self-Caterers (PASC). There are producing a weekly email update specifically for those within this sector. Please sign up to receive their weekly communication.

BED AND BREAKFAST ASSOCIATION: There are a number of bed and breakfast establishments that will potentially fall through a gap as they pay council tax rather than business rates, meaning that they will not be eligible for the Government grant support.
