VisitOrkney's breakfast bulletins, launched on 7th January, have been heralded a success.

The bulletins take the form of an email which is sent out to tourism businesses at 5pm, containing all the latest local information for the following day  including news, events, weather forecast, tides, and transport running times.

Marketing Executive Carly Simpson said: "We've had some very positive feedback on the breakfast bulletins. Whether used to provide information to B&B guests over their breakfast or posted at the reception in a hotel, it's proving to be a good way of delievering comprehensive, up to the minute information to the industry."
