Overview of consumer insights and other research

 

Pete confirmed information shows more visitors are coming by car with 6% in campervans who are using small sites in local community woodland, which is an issue we are aware of.

It was noted there should be a health warning as it will be location based reflecting hotspot data.

 

4.Restart

Visitor Management Issues – CNPA

– initial weekend feedback

 – camping & campervans

– provision of visitor facilities

 

–  Business re-opening situation and issues – DMOs

5.Recover

CNPA Green Recovery Plan

This has gone to Finance & Delivery Committee with final version going to Board 14th August, with a view to open the fund on Monday or Tuesday of the following week.  It is still to be confirmed if the fund will be available to individual business as its size does not lend itself to this.  There will be a very simple application process which will be open for a month and be promoted through CBP and other partner memberships as far and wide as possible.  All applications will be assessed on criteria, not first come first served with awards being made by the end of September.
