This will help visitor economy businesses in Birmingham to become more environmentally sustainable. The organisation should have relevant expertise / knowledge in delivering training and high-quality materials. The Council and its partners including the West Midlands Growth Company are committed to making the city a competitive and sustainable leisure destination for visitors and residents. The opportunity of hosting the Commonwealth Games is seen as driver for positive change in the West Midlands Region. This project will need to deliver the following objectives: - To develop a high-quality sustainable tourism training programme for Birmingham visitor economy businesses. - To support tourism and hospitality businesses in Birmingham to improve the communication of sustainability information, practises and facilities for the benefit of both domestic and international leisure visitors, as well as the MICE market. - To develop a user-friendly sustainable tourism hub to act as a repository for online training webinars, training materials and information guides. - To act as a test and learn project to inform a potential wider roll-out across the West Midlands. The support for sustainable tourism needs to include the following: - Links to training webinars. - Case studies of local businesses who are exemplars in addressing their sustainability. Local sustainability champions could prove more relatable to SMEs than established chains. - Guidance on marketing a business' sustainability. - Considerations for small businesses with little or no budget to make changes. - Considerations for businesses who could be restricted from making changes such as listed building regulations in the heritage sector. - Links to further training, sources of funding, award schemes, competitions and awareness days to leverage PR.
