Media interest in Scotland escalates at this time of year, and in the last few weeks, VisitScotland’s PR teams have been kept busy with a host of media enquiries and press trips for the Argyll, Loch Lomond and Forth Valley area. These have included:
- a variety of press trips linked to VisitScotland expo at Glasgow’s SECC on 26 and 27 April.
- an enquiry from The Guardian on coastal camp sites.
- a photographic feature on the Argyll islands in 'Scotland' magazine linked to the Queen’s 80th birthday tour in Scotland.
- area-wide suggestions for a ‘Top Ten Spring Walks’ feature recently published by The Herald.
- arrangement of a walking trip to Mull for a journalist from The Independent.
- assistance with a Sunday Herald journalist’s trip to the Luss Estates area.
- wide distribution of an Easter events listing including the Easter Egg Special at Bo'ness & Kinneil Railway, Dunoon's 'Music in the Castle' Folk Festival and Tramping in the Trossachs .
