£1 spent by those staying in high-end accommodation in the UK generates £8 of value in other industries, such as culture, entertainment and luxury shopping, which in turn supports hundreds of thousands of jobs across the UK.
Walpole supports the growth of the tourism and visitor economy through our work with Government departments, the GREAT Campaign and our wide range of partners. We advise Government and others on promoting the UK abroad, and undertake trade missions overseas to encourage high spending international visitors to come to the UK.
