TOURISM in Tenbury has had a boost from Worcestershire County Council.

A picture postcard of the town's unique pump rooms is included in a batch of 1,000 cards sent by county tourism officer, Kathryn Wagstaff to addresses across the Worcestershire and the West Midlands.

Recipients have been invited to compare the county with some of the most popular tourism destinations in the world and Tenbury has been selected as part of the promotion.

Kathryn said: "We have sent them out to show people what they have got on their own doorstep and our belief is that Worcestershire can compete with anywhere in the world when it comes to places to visit."
