Wales launches fund to help 'weatherproof' tourist sites
The Guardian
|April 30, 2025
The landscapes are as spectacular as the welcome is warm in the Welsh valleys, mountain villages and harbour towns, but the weather can be, to put it mildly, unreliable.
In an attempt to counter a trend of visitors staying away because of the threat of chilly sogginess, the Welsh government is launching a million-pound "weatherproofing" fund for tourism businesses.
Owners of attractions will be able to apply for up to £20,000 for improvements such as canopies, sustainable drainage, covered seating areas, shelters or pathways and car park surfaces.
The Welsh Association of Visitor Attractions (Wava), which worked with the government to develop the fund, said it showed Wales was the first nation to experiment with ideas to combat the effects of climate change on tourism.
