Why these special reward offers now?
The global COVID-19 pandemic has created a very uncertain landscape for Hampshire tourism & small businesses, which is going to make it very challenging for businesses to survive. Together we can help you.
During the coronavirus crisis people getting their inspiration, ideas and enjoying nice memories of past holidays from online video and images.

During the pandemic we have been producing pro bono videos for local and national charities to get their important messages out about their support for some of society's most vulnerable people.
We now want to extend our support to Hampshire small businesses, especially tourism and hospitality companies. Our passion for Hampshire's great go to places is something we want to share with others.
Many British holidaymakers will now opt for staycations so we want to encourage them to book their trips in beautiful Hampshire!
Video is now a or even the key factor in decision-making for travellers, 60%+ (higher in younger age groups) of travellers and Visit Britain have recognised this, using video at the heart of their Microgapping campaign to attract younger people to take holidays in the UK and enjoy the amazing places to visit and activities on offer.
Not just video though - Visit Britain recommend high impact, high quality, engaging and interesting video, using content that is refreshed and updated.
This is what we can create for you.
