“As an industry that thrives on shared experiences, spectacular events, warm hospitality and welcome, we have faced the demands of the last two years in true Lancashire style; our tourism businesses took stock, rolled up their sleeves, and came up with new ways of making things work – which they delivered brilliantly.
“We should be so very proud of what has been achieved and the Lancashire Tourism Awards 2021, will be the sector’s opportunity to applaud those achievements together, at last.
“I, for one, can’t wait to congratulate each and every one of the finalists - they are all winners in our eyes.”
