Wealden MP Supporting Tourism Week

Nus Ghani, MP for Wealden, is encouraging Wealden residents to visit local heritage sites

It's in celebration of English Tourism Week (18 – 27 March 2022).
 
English Tourism Week is an annual celebration of the tourism industry, highlighting its contribution to local communities and economies and encouraging more people to take domestic trips and breaks. Pre-pandemic, tourism supported 2.6 million jobs spread across all regions of England and contributed £146 billion to the economy. 
 
Nus Ghani said: “Wealden heritage sites are vital to our local economy and the cultural fabric of the area, creating a myriad of local jobs and attracting visitors from all over the country. We are extremely lucky to have so many great heritage sites in Wealden, including the fantastic Michelham Priory near Hailsham, Nutley windmill near Uckfield, and the Spa Valley Railway in Eridge. I appreciate the huge impact that the pandemic has had on the tourism industry and heritage sites in Wealden, and I would like to encourage Wealden residents to support our local sites and revisit them this spring.”
