Suffolk County Council reposted this
Suffolk and Norfolk have joined the new national framework of VisitEngland accredited Local Visitor Economy Partnerships (LVEP) after a successful bid by Visit East of England supported by Suffolk County Council and Norfolk County Councils. Developed and administered by VisitEngland, the national portfolio of strategic and high-performing LVEPs support collaborative working locally and nationally on shared priorities and targets to grow the local visitor economy. The creation of LVEPs was part of the UK Government’s response to the recommendations of The de Bois Review: an independent review of DMOs in England, to reshape destination management across England, reducing fragmentation and bringing coherence to its DMO landscape. VEE chair Andy Wood OBE DL said, ‘We’re delighted that Suffolk and Norfolk County Councils have worked with us to make this successful joint LVEP application. We’ve brought together all the destination organisations and local authorities in the past few years, and this excellent news means we can grow that collaborative approach and deliver more for what is our largest industry sector and biggest employer.’ For more information, visit: https://lnkd.in/eFw7EwPx #LVEPs #VisitEngland #Suffolk #Norfolk #Tourism #LocalEconomy #Collaboration #VisitEastOfEngland #Travel #SustainableTourism #LVEP
I hope that the partnership and collaboration strengthens and the representation of the new LVEP board is balanced for both counties. #Suffolk #Norfolk #EastOfEngland …good news for the region as this is now the way forward for the visitor economy.
