Travellers Aid – It is No Trivial Pursuit

The tourism industry is amazingly diverse – the visitor experience in Melbourne ranges from 5 star luxury and marquee events to organisations whose primary role is to help the disadvantaged and just plain unlucky find their way.

One of the things we love about the industry in Melbourne is that we get fired up about the visitor experience. Regardless of whether the visitor is a visiting dignitary, or someone without a roof over their head.

Destination Melbourne is co-hosting a fund raiser for Travellers Aid. This co-operative venture will bring the industry together to celebrate and support the works of a charity that has been providing support to travellers since 1916!

Travellers Aid is the tourism charity. They help hundreds of people everyday get to their destination safely. As an organisation, they embody what is right about Melbourne… a commitment to outstanding service and a duty of care for visitors to our beautiful city, no matter where they come from.

Most importantly they understand their connection with tourism… they are active participants in all manner of industry forums. They are positive advocates for accessibility and they understand what makes Melbourne tick at the grassroots.

In true tourism industry fashion – we are taking collective action and supporting a great cause, by having fun… A trivia night.

The response has already been amazing teams are registering from all over… people who understand the connection between doing the right thing and doing good business.

So if you are in Melbourne on the evening of May 25th please join us in what should be a really good evening’s entertainment and supporting a great cause. Tickets are $30pp including pizza and nibbles – drinks at bar prices.

Everyone is welcome!

Registrations close May 19th. Email info@destinationmelbourne.com.au for more information, or give us a call 03 9869 2444.
