APPOINTMENTS New tourism chair looks to the future
Firm foundations laid over the past four years have paved the way for an even brighter and more secure future for tourism in the Peak District and Derbyshire. That was the message from the
incoming Chairman of official tourist board Marketing Peak District & Derbyshire, Paul Jones, as he took over the helm from outgoing Chairman Paul Roden. He said: “Since Marketing Peak
District & Derbyshire was reorganised in 2014, so much has been achieved to keep it moving forward to address the ever- changing demands and challenges of the competitive tourism industry. “During Paul Roden’s
chairmanship, huge progress has been made in putting the tourist board on a sustainable financial footing, creating a responsive infrastructure to take it forward and devising and taking part in creative and innovative marketing campaigns to attract more staying visitors from both the UK and overseas. “I’ll be looking to consolidate and
build upon the hard work that has already been done by supporting Managing Director Jo Dilley and her outstanding team to offer an even more effective service in the future

and very much looking forward to, the challenge.” Outgoing Chairman Paul Roden
added: “It’s been a privilege and a pleasure to be part of this crucial phase in its development, and I would like to thank all the members of its small, but dedicated team for their hard work and commitment.”
