Morning everyone

12:26
Sorry, I don't have a camera today. Julie Owen (Devon Loves Dogs)

13:15
no camera here either, (Stephen E, Teignbridge DC).

17:30
My mum's from Newquay … :-)

29:44
What is the law (if there is one) regarding cycling on non-Bridleway paths?

29:46
New demographic of visitors?

40:15
Really good point about positive messaging rather than don’t!

41:30
Great messaging! Can we adapt it (only easily adaptable materials, probably not videos etc) to Devon this summer?

42:47
Hi Sally, you mentioned govt funding to support VM - do you have any further info on this you can share. Would like to check the Devon group is tapped into this is relevant

43:01
Was the # you are using #respectprotectenjoy? We could use that for our social media to spread the campaign into south east Devon. Amelia (south east Devon habitat regulations partnership)

44:24
Plastic free north Devon are also running (and expanding) a #protectourplayground campaign which could be of use

44:53
is the Dorset beach App being used in the AONB or just the main urban beaches?

44:53
#RespectProtectEnjoy is linked to central gov messages and revamped Countryside Code: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-countryside-code

45:57
Brilliant thank you! I will link them into future social media posts

50:50
Talking to coastal colleagues around the country, these are common issues nationally - with our positive need for well being, clean water, etc., shame there isn't more of a national awareness push (beyond the C'side Code revamp)?

53:37
Could your model be used to identify opportunities for developing new habitat areas etc that could be developed (wilding, beaver intro etc) as new areas of opportunity?

54:01
Hi Nigel - I'll get more info on Monday but I think there is a central govt group looking at safe reopening of the sector. What i'm not sure about is how much of a focus is on mitigating harm to the env and how much is about supporting local businesses and economy and protecting health

54:42
But through the Devon wide group there is an opportunity to feed messages in to the central govt group

55:17
Maybe we should push for a regional message - this is an issue for most of th SW

57:26
Hi Andy, yes we think it has the potential for that, as part of a wider conversation about regional tourism management. We are currently thinking about next steps and welcome thoughts on whether this tool/ method is useful.

59:34
The Coastal Partnerships Network is set up to support national connectivity for this kind of work, linked through local-place based Coastal Partnerships. The Coastal based Approach, akin to the Catchment based Approach may also help to facilitate this kind of joined up approach nationally.

01:00:47
Just wondering what, specifically, is considered as sustainable tourism? Does it relate to the type of accommodation/venue to be developed or to implementation of visitor management methods? Both, perhaps?

01:02:27
In relation to sustainable tourism, I was going to ask if there has been any consideration given to human carrying capacity at the coast. WWF Germany have been doing this kind of work as part of another Interreg project on sustainable tourism

01:04:52
Would the Innovative Resilience Fund be appropriate to investigating funding models for this work?

01:05:27
This is a link to a report we wrote on this: https://www.bcht.eu/results.html

01:07:37
Hi Lews, thank you for that link to Coastal Partnership - and to the Catchment based approach

01:10:37
Coherent messaging is essential

01:11:04
re. the good question on definition sustainable tourism - we developed 3 scenarios before Covid, the sustainable tourism scenario was about custodianship and stewardship - so more on the good visitor management side, than accommodation/ venue types.

01:11:44
Must head off. Thanks for the presentations.

01:13:18
I'll speak to Dorset Council about sharing of resources and will get back to Steve who can then share with you, if that's ok.

01:13:29
We've got a short term challenge - dealing with our current situation, but we also need to develop the vision of how all this will look in 5-10 years time

01:13:52
Totally agree Andy

01:15:10
I think there are some important concepts that our visitors need 'to get' (& some locals) - many of these issues are cumulative impacts - we do need to sweat some of the small stuff. Another is 'biosecurity' and visitors and their equipment as INNS vectors. Personally, I don't feel that wildlife disturbance is being pushed enough - particularly on the coast

01:17:28
Make it easy for people to 'do the right thing'

01:22:49
Agree re regional messaging. Can we use Dorset's 5 visitor promises and associated branding?

01:23:34
apparently 40k downloaded the beach app - but no data on what the impact on the beaches themselves were

01:26:04
Steve - can you share a list of attendees and email contact?

01:26:30
Thanks very much - really great presentations

01:26:39
Thanks everyone

01:26:45
Cheers Steve

01:26:48

01:26:50
Thanks all

01:26:51
Great webinar, thank you for organising :)

01:26:54
Fascinating presentations, thank you.

01:27:05
Thanks all and to Steve for hosting

01:27:08
thanks.
