WQ82683 (e) Tabled on 16/06/2021

Will the Minister confirm how much money has been spent promoting tourism in Rhondda Cynon Taf?

Answered by Minister for Economy | Answered on 23/06/2021

It is not possible to break down expenditure by local authority area as   the Visit Wales focus is on national-led campaigns, promoting attractions in all regions of Wales through associated content, PR and social media activity.  

Rhondda Cynon Taf and the South Wales Valleys feature prominently in this activity and the current Addo campaign, has Valleys locations featured in 60% of content, including the following RCT locations;

·         Nelson

·         Pontypridd

·         Eglwysilan

·         Treorci

·         Aberdar/Hirwaun

·         Porth

·         Mynydd Bwlch

·         Mynydd Rhigos

In addition, Visit Wales recently published five new RCT tourism related articles on visitwales.com and several social media posts.
