Why do you Love Pembrokeshire?

This week sees Pembrokeshire Tourism joining forces with the county radio station, 102.5 Radio Pembrokeshire, to run a week long promotion highlighting why tourism is so important here.

Over the course of the week, listeners will be invited to stop by the Radio Pembrokeshire facebook page and leave their comments as to why they Love Pembrokeshire. Our facebook page, for those who don't know is called Love Pembrokeshire, thus the theme!

Thanks to the generosity of several of our members, we have some superb prizes to give away this week, ranging from  a stay in a Deluxe room in the Giltar Hotel in Tenby with breakfast, to a 'Look the Rhino in the Eye' experience to a B&B + Coasteering experience and more.

There are perhaps two themes running with the promotion. Firstly, we are looking to highlight and promote some of the wonderful treasures here in Pembrokeshire, and encourage conversation and interaction about why Pembrokeshire is so special. Secondly we are looking to explain more about what Pembrokeshire Tourism does, and how we play an active role in keeping things special, and encouraging and supporting the businesses across the county who all play a part in contributing to our economy.

The tourism industry in Pembrokeshire is worth over £520million a year, and supports 16,000 or so jobs, 14,000 of them being directly involved in the sector. It is not to be sniffed at! With this in mind, it is crucial that the industry is given the support and tools it needs to develop and grow. Pembrokeshire Tourism is part of this support network, and creates opportunities for the trade to get together, talk about what matters, learn new skills, and much more. If you want to know more about what we can do for you, simply get in touch with us on 01646 622228.
