World Heritage status call for vintage transport
It’s not just the Island’s population that’s ageing – our tourists are too, and we need to attract younger visitors.
That’s just one of the messages in a new tourism strategy unveiled this week to guide the industry through the next five years.
The Destination Management Plan says the Island needs things like a holiday family centre, a TT attraction, and World Heritage status for our vintage transport system.
Robin Bischert, the Department of Economic Development’s director for the visitor economy, says we also need a rethink of who we’re marketing the Island to:
Three-month wait for state pension forecast statements
OFT to investigate possible regulation of funeral directors
"One of the Island's foremost champions of Manx heritage" to receive Tynwald Honour
No timeline yet for reinstatement of rehab service to north
Venezuela Fury & Noah Price wedding "a true showcase of the breadth and quality of Manx services"
