The guide advises visitors that the city offers some of the best venues in the UK including 30 hotels, four dedicated conference centres, 10 sporting arenas and 15 unusual venues all with meeting and conference facilities. “We are very excited about the launch of the destination guide which will now be distributed among our members and through public information services across the country,” said Jackie Inskipp, general manager at Destination Milton Keynes. “With the guidance of Carys Underwood, one of DMK’s marketers, the members have worked closely to produce an informative, yet vibrant and easy to read guide that is freely available to visitors.” The destination guide has been sponsored by Milton Keynes Council, the Association of Milton Keynes Hoteliers and Lloyds TSB plc, DMK’s first corporate member. Pete Winkelman, chairman of MK Dons and a founder member of Destination Milton Keynes spoke at the event: “We are very proud to mark our 2^nd birthday with this significant achievement. It demonstrates that by working together we are stronger in championing Milton Keynes.” Two signed MK Dons’ shirts were auctioned at the event raising £350 for RNLI and MK MIND.
