A New Lease of Life for Hidden Britain!
After three previous years of funding from Defra, the project has now gained a further two years of support from SEEDA through the Rural Development Programme for England (RDPE).
This not only allows the project to continue its work, but also to expand and work with more communities than ever before. We are targetting to work with 15 new destinations over the next two years, so if you think your community could benefit from the Hidden Britain approach then please get in touch!
We have also just appointed a new development officer to the team, Claudia Townsend, who will be working part time to help develop new projects in the South East.
Claudia has worked on community and sustainable tourism in a number of countries around the world and has an MSc in tourism and sustainability. She is looking forward to getting to know some of the South East’s most interesting towns and villages and working with their communities to promote them.
