Learn English in Cornwall - Awards

GOLD AWARD FOR LEARN ENGLISH IN CORNWALL

Information from the Green Tourism Business Scheme about Green Tourism & Eco-tourism: Green Tourism differs from eco-tourism as Green Tourism businesses must make efforts to reduce their impact on the environment and may not use the environment or nature as a marketing tool. Ecotourism businesses use environment and nature as a marketing tool and may not be making efforts to reduce their impact on the environment.

Members of the Green Tourism Business Scheme include business conference centres and city centre hotels, self catering accommodation, restaurants, visitors centres and even some distilleries and transport operators.

As a consumer, ultimately it is you that makes the difference by choosing businesses that are committed to you and the environment, and we hope that in choosing a Green Tourism Business Scheme Member you will pass on your experience to others and encourage them to do likewise.

Julie has benefited greatly from the support of various environment agencies during the five years it has taken her to develop her award winning business. In her view, unless a business is sustainable it cannot survive. Joining the GTBS helped her to focus on the changes that were needed in order to gain her Gold Award. Julie has been delighted with the level of help and support she has received, which has helped her to achieve success in her business.

MEMBER OF THE CoaST PROJECT NETWORK

The CoaST Project Network has been created by the CoaST Project. The network provides the opportunity for an association of organisations and individuals committed to the successful development of sustainable tourism in Cornwall to exchange ideas, knowledge and expertise.

Within Cornwall at the moment there are an increasing number of tourism-related businesses trying to involve some element of sustainability within what they do, for reasons of ethics or finance. At the same time there are a number of agencies at local, regional and national level eager to support sustainable tourism; there is also a growing demand for responsible practices from Cornwall's host communities and her visitors.

The CoaST Project Network is for, and comprised of, all of the above.
