Crowdfund Hertfordshire: Small Business Innovation Fund has provided £5,000 of match funding
COVID: Help Auriel Holidays earn matched funding
Wheathampstead, England, United Kingdom
Aim
Use the ‘Herts matched funding scheme’ to quickly diversify into domestic travel to Scotland, Ireland, England, Wales and Europe, post COVID
MATCHED FUNDING SCHEME: Herts Local Enterprise Partnership & Visit Herts:
Our experienced team at 2by2 Holidays has been creating tailor made wildlife & cultural holidays to Africa, Latin America & India for nearly 20 years, offering a high level of expertise & personal service. But the COVID-19 pandemic means that most of our customers will be unable to travel internationally this year. So we are launching a new travel agency - AURIEL HOLIDAYS - to deliver a range of unforgettable domestic holidays in the UK & Europe.
Drawing on our existing strengths, we will initially focus on tailor made road trips and rail journeys, as well as a range of small group wildlife, walking & rail tours - exploring the stunning landscapes, history & natural heritage of Scotland, Ireland, England & Wales. We will also offer island hopping in Scotland, Ireland, the Isles of Scilly & the Channel Islands, working with like-minded tour operators who know their destinations intimately. As European destinations open up to travel, these will be added e.g. Portugal.
So pledge your support, as this will allow us to qualify for up to £5,000 of matched-funding from Herts Local Enterprise Partnership & Visit Herts, who set up this creative crowdfunding scheme to support local businesses in sectors most affected by the pandemic - such as ours.
In return, we will reward you with discounts of between 5% and 10% on your next holiday, so enjoy browsing our websites for inspiration - Auriel Holidays for domestic travel, or 2by2 Holidays for international trips.
Thank you in anticipation for your support.
We ask project owners to honour their rewards wherever possible but please note that all pledges are donations and there is no guarantee that you will receive any rewards from the project owner. Please see Crowdfunder's Terms of Use for more information regarding rewards for pledges.
