The Isle of Wight's Parkdean holiday resorts will reopen from next week, with the company promising to safeguard all of its Island jobs.
The holiday park operator has four sites on the Island: Thorness Bay, Lower Hyde, Nodes Point and Landguard.
It says every park will reopen on Monday (6), with a range of new COVID-safe measures.
The company currently employs 400 people here, and has promised that all of those roles are secure.
Steve Richards, Chief Executive of Parkdean Resorts, said:
“We are ready and waiting to warmly welcome holidaymakers who want to enjoy a well-deserved break whilst seeking fresh air, open spaces and safe, beautiful locations. Our team has worked hard to ensure that whilst social distancing and health and safety measures are adhered to, our holidaymakers’ experience will be the best yet.”
To ensure a safe reopening, all holiday parks have introduced a number of safety and hygiene processes and procedures, in adherence with the latest Government guidelines and instructions, including:
- Implementing and enforcing a social distance policy: drive-thru check-ins, one-way systems, and clear social distancing markers.
- Ensuring in-depth cleaning procedures: deep cleaning each caravan between every new customer visit, and making hand sanitiser available throughout the park.
- Restricting access to communal facilities: Limiting capacity at facilities in order to meet the Government’s ‘1 metre plus’ social distance requirements.
- Operating self-sufficient facilities: Opening facilities such as convenience shops, allowing people to stay on park without accessing local shops.
Parkdean Resorts says its Isle of Wight teams have been working hard to ensure the great British holiday is the "best it has ever been".
The company is launching its biggest ever marketing campaign. A £4.5 million campaign, featuring TV personality Stephen Mulhern, will launch on Friday July 3.
