Darren Dorrington, CEO for MKFM said, “We know exactly how independent businesses have suffered over the last year, we have ourselves. Like many, thanks to the support of our partners we have been able to steer our way through this crisis. Along the way, we have offered several free initiatives as well as radio commercials at a fraction of our normal rates.
“As businesses get back on their feet, it’s vital we continue to support business here in MK and work with partners like Destination MK to maximise the support that’s available locally.”
Destination Milton Keynes’ CEO, Ian Stuart commented, “The visitor economy is so important to Milton Keynes not only financially but also culturally; we all miss going out to restaurants, visiting the theatre with friends and taking family to enjoy our amazing local attractions, art and culture. Our offer allows all businesses within the sector to get some much-needed promotional support just as we start to see the area reopen over the next few months. I’d urge any visitor economy business to go online and get themselves listed.”
* Destination Milton Keynes (DMK), the official visitor and tourism information provider for the city, is offering all businesses within the retail, leisure, hospitality, arts and culture sectors a free listing on their recently re-launched website.
