Go Beyond Holidays names new non-executive director

Richard Thompson has been appointed as non-executive director of Go Beyond Holidays.

The operator specialises in trips for those with learning disabilities, autism, Asperger’s and those who need extra support on their travels.

He worked for Travel Counsellors for 12 years before setting up Inclu Travel a year ago.

Thompson, who has more than 40 years experience in travel, has been prompting accessible travel after breaking his neck in a car accident while working in the French Alps.

A company spokesperson said: “We are pleased to introduce you to our new non-executive director, Richard Thompson.

“With over four decades of tourism experience and world-renowned supported travel expert, it literally feels like we have just signed Lionel Messi.”
