Inclusive Tourism Vouchers

Inclusive Tourism Vouchers up to £500 are now available to help Belfast businesses become more accessible for disabled visitors.

The Inclusive Tourism Vouchers are part of Belfast City Council’s inclusive tourism programme, which is being delivered in partnership with Visit Belfast and Tourism NI.

Making your business inclusive makes good business sense.

There are 14 million disabled people in the UK with a spending power of £249 billion. When disabled visitors find a place where they feel welcome, they spend money, they come again, and they spread the word.

The vouchers can be used towards the cost of training, professional services, small items of equipment and more. This could include, for example:

• Mentoring and consultancy
• Access audits
• Updating your website or marketing materials
• New signage
• Sensory packs
• Other solutions to make your business more inclusive

You can also search the suppliers directory for more inspiration.
