Visit Peak District & Derbyshire Branding Guidelines
In 2022 we underwent a branding refresh. As part of the work we consulted with our members, private and public stakeholders to develop a shared brand proposition with an appealing tone of voice and engaging photography.
This brand proposition allows us to focus on what we would like the destination to be known for – some of this we can control, but is reflective of the thoughts and actions of our locals and tourism businesses.

English Tourism Week toolkit
English Tourism Week will take place on 15-24 March 2024. Get involved with the new industry toolkit.
English Tourism Week (15-24 March 2024) is a celebration of our diverse, exciting and vibrant sector, and highlights the quality and value of English tourism.
This annual campaign raises awareness of our industry among key stakeholders, including MPs, ministers and the media. It forms part of VisitEngland’s mission to champion the sector through political engagement nationally, regionally and locally – demonstrating to political decision-makers the importance of tourism in England and their local area.
English Tourism Week aims to:
- Kickstart the spring/summer season and give businesses and destinations a marketing hook to engage with customers and encourage bookings
- Give businesses an opportunity to engage with local stakeholders such as MPs and media, to bring attention to tourism’s contribution in their area.
- Increase awareness among domestic visitors of the quality and variety of the English tourism offer, and encourage domestic travel.
Resources for businesses, destinations and industry
A toolkit for industry is now available for you to get involved with English Tourism Week. The toolkit is packed with logos and branded imagery that you can use across your social and web channels, along with branded templates where you can add your own imagery too, (using Photoshop or Powerpoint).
