Description

East Devon District Council is seeking to commission a mid-term Tourism Strategy for East Devon. We are looking to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced organisation to articulate a distinctive and inspiring vision for tourism in East Devon and develop an actionable Tourism Strategy for the District.

The strategy should enable tourism development that is complementing, emphasising and protecting the natural capital of East Devon's environment. Alongside core themes of encouraging responsible and sustainable tourism, it should also have a strong focus on accessibility and inclusivity.

We want to ensure our visitor economy recovers and thrives post-pandemic and that future tourism benefits our dispersed rural communities, our environment and local economies beyond the traditionally popular coastal areas.
