Scottish Agritourism Membership Charter

1. Members will support the overall collective ambition to grow the agritourism sector in Scotland for the positive good of the rural economy.

2. Peer to peer support, helping each other to grow and develop your business is a key ethos behind Scottish Agritourism. Members are expected to be as keen to give support and knowledge and share information as they are to receive it from others.

3. Members will respect a business club where trust, confidentiality and mutual respect is paramount.

4. Members will not share documents, how to guides, information provided by other members with others outwith their own business and will not publicise this information anywhere, particularly for their own commercial advantage.

5. Any information shared in the knowledge hub can be viewed and used by other agritourism businesses to support their business. All agritourism businesses will have access to view and use this information.

6. In a context of sharing information and tips from others, members are not expected to directly copy the brand, name or exact concept or detail of an offering from others.

7. The forum or any Whatsapp group requires members to act in a considerate and respectful way to others. It is not the place to share political views or to criticise other members and members will be contacted and then subsequently removed if conduct is not as we would expect.

8. Members will use the Go Rural Brand to promote agritourism in Scotland to consumers and reinforce Go Rural brand values.
