Ilfracombe businesses and associations pulled together at a meeting last week to not just talk about what Ilfracombe needs, but to take action. The meeting was chaired by Cllr Philip Webb who has agreed to lead the implementation of a cohesive Ilfracombe Tourism strategy.
Ilfracombe Town Council has expressed its consternation at the news that the town's Tourist Information Centre is to receive a 45% cut in its funding from the area's publicly funded tourism body - North Devon Plus. Local TICs have been waiting to hear how the recently announced overall reduction would affect them individually and Ilfracombe is particularly disappointed at the extent of its cut, which sees its grant reduced from £15,434 last year to £8,500.
The public of Ilfracombe are invited to air their views, voice complaints, make suggestions or simply come along and listen at Ilfracombe's annual town meeting to be held on Wednesday 31st March at 7pm.
