VisitScotland is leading a coordinated partnership response to the impact of COVID-19 on the tourism industry

VisitScotland, Scotland's national tourist board and Scotland Europa members, is leading a coordinated partnership response to the impact of COVID-19 on the tourism industry.

From signposting crucial information on financial assistance to providing support and advice on a wide range of issues for tourism businesses, we have created a single portal for the industry. This page also details our work to gather intelligence and data - vital in informing a strategic and effective recovery - and keep stakeholders, from consumers to government, informed and inspired.

Tourism is one of the hardest hit sectors but it will also be instrumental to the recovery of our economies and communities. From industry impact to good news stories on the innovative ways businesses are adapting to the situation, from marketing and recovery planning to our work with online travel agents, you can find more about our activities in the attached document.
