Visit Lincoln has launched a new campaign to boost tourism in Lincoln.

To mark English Tourism Week, the “IN Lincoln” campaign encourages people to support local businesses.

Samuel Clarke, Visit Lincoln’s marketing manager said: “We want to encourage businesses to feel positive about the tourism sector and look forward to things getting back to normal.

“The IN Lincoln campaign is the consumer facing side of that, about encouraging residents to spend in the city and getting people to visit Lincoln again.”
