Statement By Tourism Ireland's Deputy Head Of Great Britain
Judith Cassidy, Tourism Ireland's deputy head of Great Britain, said, "Tourism Ireland was delighted to invite these influential journalists to visit, to experience for themselves some of the many great things to see and do here. Through their articles - which will reach over one million people - they will encourage their readers to come and experience Donegal and Derry for themselves.
"Tourism Ireland is rolling out a new 'twinning' initiative in 2022, which involves each overseas market 'twinning with' a specific region or area on the island of Ireland - placing a special focus on the area. Great Britain is twinned with Donegal and Derry."
