The Name Game
Through community consultation, a key area identified as priority for us was the need to increase footfall and tourism in our district. After much research, development and discussion with our Tourism Steering Group (including representatives from all villages of the District) we have decided on the key themes that make our area unique and are working with internationally prize-winning design and marketing company Zero to bring this to life!
​
Key themes identified: PILGRIMAGE - SANCTUARY - COAST
Look out for our poll coming very soon on Facebook and in your community so you can have your say on our final name and strap line we will use to market the area.
