Showcasing Whitchurch on Test, North Hampshire’s Hidden Gem and the Southern Gateway to the North Wessex Downs AONB
Whitchurch Association trustees would like to thank Basingstoke & Deane Borough Council and former borough Cllr. Lucie Maitland for the generous £500 grant for the design and purchase of 2 double sided tourism pop up banners.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words; the team at Whitchurch, Hampshire are hoping their fabulous new double-sided banners will prove this correct.
Since achieving Walkers are Welcome accreditation in 2015, showcasing and promoting Whitchurch and North Hampshire to a wider audience has been an important part of the ongoing tourism development work (place shaping) being undertaken in the town. The borough Local Plan update currently underway, has presented the perfect opportunity to provide input to the Plan’s rural policies and develop a destination management plan for the town and with the recent publication of the Government’s Landscapes Review, the work locally has gained a new momentum.
Discover somewhere new in 2022…. Discover Whitchurch, Hampshire.
Commenting on the new publicity material, Jackie Browne, co-ordinator for the town’s Walkers are Welcome tourism accreditation said, ‘there’s more to Hampshire than the New Forest, the north of the county has so much to offer, not least walking and cycling without the crowds; these banners will help ‘sell’ that message at events within and outside the county and hopefully encourage more visitors to come and explore the fabulous North Wessex Downs and the valleys of the chalk streams”.
