This crisis is having a huge impact on the tourism industry, especially in North Yorkshire, where tourism is a major pillar of the economy.
Each cancelled booking with a B&B or Guest House (for example) has a massive "knock-on" effect.

This is just scratching the surface, but needs highlighting. There is always more that can be done to help the tourism industry see this crisis through. But awareness needs to be increased. The impact isn& #39;t restricted to less takings at a B&B etc.

When this crisis is over, millions of people will want (and need) a good holiday. Where better than in North Yorkshire and its vast wealth of quality accommodation providers, visitor attractions, places to see, things to do, places to eat and the best scenery in the UK!
