Hay Tourism Group - Short notes and series of action plans

Short notes from the meeting and a series of action points:

Items discussed/Updates

- Luke's meeting with TIB had been positive in many respects. TIB somewhat reassured about our objectives and agreed to involvement/collaboration on some of our Action Plan points. Those present agreed it would be a good idea to have a further meeting with the TIB.

- National Park information board and town map. Idea of a town map to aid visitor orientation went down well at recent meeting with TIB. Since the meeting we have discovered there is already a BBNP sign in the car park so funding a new one may be difficult.

- Improvements to Public Toilets - need to establish whose responsibility this is. Worth spending some time on as it is a key priority and is something which it was felt could be accomplished in a relatively short timescale.

- Promotional activities - Alison and Amy felt concept of an "audit" was a little dry. Had brainstormed and come up with plenty of ideas on how to better promote Hay - eg a regular events listing in printed broadsheet format. Concept of a walking festival had also come up (this has been mooted in the past) which would tie in with idea of Hay becoming a Walkers are Welcome town. The idea of a printed town map and/or a pared-down version of the brochure needs careful consideration. Could be more efficient (economically and environmentally) but would compete with brochure for advertising space.
