17 June 2008

Readers of 'Group Travel Magazine' have been busy casting their eye over every aspect of the Group Travel industry in this country, and voting for those companies or destinations that deliver excellence.  Liverpool Cathedral has been nominated in the category of Best Venue offering Guided Tours.  The awards will be presented in London on Friday 20th June.

Says Director of Hospitality, Eryl Parry, "We are delighted to receive this recognition from those we serve.  At Liverpool Cathedral we have invested in improving our visitor facilities and have placed great focus on developing the quality and range of what we offer to visitors.  This year we have seen a significant upturn in numbers visiting the Cathedral.  Up to the end of May, we have registered an increase of over 53,000 people as we enjoy the city's year as European Capital of Culture.  Visitors have been enjoying a packed programme of events, as well as taking the opportunity to learn more about the Cathedral itself through personally guided tours, our new Film and Audio Tour - now available in foreign languages and our groundbreaking BSL guided tour on portable DVD.  Visits to the Tower remain hugely popular, with views stretching across the whole region."
