Tourism and leisure businesses in Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex have been invited to take part in a snap shot online survey which launches today at 5pm.

The short, seven-question survey will provide some insight into how businesses are performing.

Larking Gowen said feedback from participants in the comprehensive, annual Tourism Business Survey, indicated a desire for more relevant, mid-year data.

The company said: 'This sector is very important to our region. Publishing the results not only helps businesses directly but can help influence consumers, by aiding their confidence, but also provides confidence to those seeking either a career, investment or considering supplying services to the sector.'

The survey closes at 5pm on August 23. The results will be available on August 25.
