Bath has been very quiet during lockdown, but now we’re opening back up for tourism, such an important part of our economy. Are we ready with safe spaces to stay and safe spaces to visit? What is Bath’s unique offering? Is this a good time to visit our world heritage city, with its Roman, Georgian and Victorian heritage?

In this public discussion, host Wera Hobhouse MP puts these questions and more to Alison Curran from the Bath Area Self Catering Association, Kathryn Davis from Visit Bath, Chris Stephens from the Holburne Museum, Andrew Peters from the Green Park Brasserie, Councillor Paul Crossley and Prof Barry Gilbertson from the Bath UNESCO World Heritage City.

The verdict is that everyone involved in the tourism and hospitality sector is taking every possible measure to ensure the safety of our visitors.
