The ‘Visitor Economy Renaissance Programme (VERP)’ is a £1.64 million programme of activity, led by OxLEP to assist the recovery of Oxfordshire’s visitor economy. It is supported through funding secured by OxLEP via the government’s Contain Outbreak Management Fund, and aims to back the sector’s ongoing re-emergence from Covid-19 through a variety of positive interventions that will help Oxfordshire businesses remain competitive, embrace innovation, and be more resilient. This marketing campaign is a key part of the programme to help to achieve the overall aim to ‘attract visitors and ensure that Oxford and Oxfordshire maintain its position as one of the UK’s most desirable visitor destinations for local, national, and international visitors, with a focus on attracting value from all visitors and encouraging green and sustainable tourism and practices’.
