About this Event

Visit Tees Valley Business Network Breakfast | Get Visitor Ready

As we head into the winter season, now’s the perfect time to make sure your business is “visitor ready”. This session brings together key partners from across the visitor economy to share new opportunities, funded support, and expert insights to help your business prepare, promote, and perform at its best.


You’ll hear from:

🌐 Phil Saunders, LVEP Manager, Tees Valley Combined Authority
Phil will outline upcoming funded programmes designed to support local businesses in enhancing their digital marketing capabilities. Learn how to access tools, training, and campaigns that can help you reach new audiences and strengthen your online presence.

🏨 Natalie Clayton, Project Lead, Visitor Ready
Natalie leads Visitor Ready, a new free accreditation developed by the AA in partnership with VisitEngland. She’ll explain how the simple digital process helps tourism and hospitality businesses demonstrate compliance with essential safety and quality standards—boosting professionalism, visitor confidence, and credibility in a competitive marketplace.

🚌 Gavin Miller, National Operations Manager, Confederation of Passenger Transport
Gavin will share insights on becoming “Coach Friendly” - what destinations and businesses can do to welcome group travel, improve accessibility, and create memorable experiences for visitors arriving by coach.


Whether you’re looking to grow your reach, strengthen your reputation, or attract more visitors year-round, this event will equip you with the tools, knowledge, and connections to get visitor ready.
