Description

Baby Boomers did a lot for the travel industry when they kickstarted the ‘backpacking’ movement back in the 60s and 70s. But does the travel industry still welcome Boomers?

Simon Darcy specialises in inclusive organisational approaches for marginalised groups and says ageism is rife in tourism.
