Prevent the Closure of Shetland Tourist Information Centre in Lerwick!

Petition started by Sarah McBurnie

"Our Tourist Information Centre in Lerwick is a treasured local resource that has long stood as a beacon of our community's hospitality. It welcomes thousands of visitors from all around the globe every year and is equally precious to Shetland residents. Recently, Visit Scotland announced its plan to close this Centre by November, intending to digitise the service. The planned closure fails to recognise the invaluable human touch the Centre provides - the warmth, knowledge, and recommendations from our local staff. The Information Centre is not merely a building where you can gather pamphlets. It is an embodiment of the very spirit of Shetland - welcoming, informative, and responsible. We need the Centre to be put back to Shetland’s ownership and under new local management. Let us save the Shetland Tourist Information Centre in Lerwick and protect this vital resource for our community and visitors. Please sign this petition to support our cause."

I would be extemely grateful if as many of my readers as possible can sign this petition please, thank you for your support.
