Our next Knowledge Network event will be a treat for anyone who likes fresh local food!
The event will look at food-related tourism and the benefits it can bring to rural economies. Dr Sally Everett, Head of the University’s Tourism Research Institute will present University research examining how food-related tourism can deliver social, environmental and cultural development in an economically sustainable way.
There will also be local producers on hand offering their products for tasting! Look out for jam, cheese and chillies – with more to be confirmed!
Julie West, the CEO of Tastes of Anglia, will also be speaking at the event so you can find out her expert views on this expanding form of tourism.
Food Related Tourism will be interesting to anyone working in food and tourism and those of us who just enjoy sampling the local cuisine while on holiday. The event will take place at the Putteridge Bury Conference Centre, Luton, on 23rd September 2010, starting at 6.30 pm. Tickets cost £10 and include a finger buffet, wine and the opportunity to network.
