Marketing Cheshire efforts paying dividends, new figures reveal

PROMOTION body Marketing Cheshire has helped drive more than £1.2m in vital investment to support tourism businesses across rural Cheshire.

So far, 16 major projects in Cheshire and Warrington have received £463,000 of grants, levering in £740,000 of private sector investment, new figures show.

They include the conversion of redundant farm buildings into B&Bs, hotel refurbishment, increasing the grading of camping and caravan parks, creating a children’s play area and supporting the growth of local events.

Marketing Cheshire chief executive Chris Brown said: “These figures show just how much is being delivered into rural communities through this initiative.”
