Local Destination Development Meetings - The Solway Firth

The SSDA is committed to a locally-led, bottom-up approach to developing the South of Scotland as a world class visitor destination.

We want to harness the power, impact and scale of a ‘pan-South’ approach as we market the South of Scotland to the world, but we also want to work at a local level within the South of Scotland, to really listen to, engage, support and represent businesses and communities in locally relevant ways.

To achieve this, every six months we host meetings bringing together local businesses and communities in 14 areas right across the South of Scotland.

Upcoming 2025 meetings: We have set dates for Locally Led Destination Development meetings in all 14 areas of the South of Scotland for February and November. To be as inclusive as possible, each area will have one in-person and one digital meeting.
