New figures show Sidmouth and Kingsbridge are the Devon towns with the strongest recovery in visitor numbers after Covid restrictions were lifted. The data show the number of town centre visitors in the south Devon towns in July 2022 was almost back to the level of 2019, before the Government limited travel to curb the spread of the Covid-19 virus.

This is a great demonstration of the Visit Sidmouth vision, strategy, investment and consistency of rollout over the last 3 years and underlines how important it is to keep going when there are challenges (eg. covid or a recession). Although we know things are difficult still and challenging times are ahead, Sidmouth is well placed having done much of the hard work during the pandemic lockdowns.
