‘SPAIN FOR ALL’ ADVISORY BOARD REUNITE AT ABTA’S ACCESSIBLE TRAVEL AND TOURISM SEMINAR

At ABTA’s Accessible Travel and Tourism seminar, Manuel Butler, Director of the Spanish Tourist Office (UK), joined industry partners to discuss progress in improving travel accessibility and to share insight into the next stage of the ‘Spain for All’ campaign. Butler also met with advisory board members of ‘Spain for All’  (pictured) and remarked:

“It was fantastic to reconnect with our Hispano-British ‘Spain for All’ advisory board members as we continue building on the important progress made so far, working towards a model that ensures a truly inclusive experience for all travellers. This May, we will travel to Seville for the IV Session of the ‘Spain for All’ Advisory Board to share our findings with local tourism businesses and stakeholders. This initiative has several key objectives, including showcasing Spain’s accessible tourism offerings, strengthening industry partnerships, using feedback to drive growth, and increasing awareness of the ‘Spain for All’ campaign. Seville was the natural choice to host this session, given its remarkable strides in improving accessibility across the city. It offers the ideal setting for meaningful discussions and strategic planning while highlighting Spain as a leading accessible destination. There is much more to come this year, and we are excited for the journey ahead.”
