Northern celebrates English Tourism Week 2023 with special guides for destinations across its network

17 March 2023

Northern has created a series of guides to help customers working in towns and cities across its network make the most of their free time after work.

'Go Do Your Thing After Work' guides for Bradford, Harrogate, Leeds, Manchester, Middlesbrough, Newcastle, Sheffield and York have been published on the Northern website.

The guides have been released during English Tourism Week 2023, which launched on Friday (17 March) and runs until Sunday (26 March).

English Tourism Week is an annual celebration of tourism in England that seeks to highlight the importance, value and vast contribution that the sector makes to the UK economy.

The 'Go Do Your Thing After Work' guides showcase the best things the towns and cities have to offer once the working day is done, from blowing off steam by axe-throwing after a hard day or unwinding over some great food.

They also seek to highlight the benefit of commuting to work on the train. For more information, click here.

Customers can now buy a Flexi Season ticket that allows eight days of travel in 28 days, at any time between any two stations - offering flexibility and savings for anyone now working fewer days in the office.

Unlike traditional season tickets, you only pay for the days you travel on - making them perfect for people now working from home a couple of days a week. They also represent a saving versus individual Standard Anytime Day Returns.

Northern is the second largest train operator in the UK, with 2,500 services a day to more than 500 stations across the North of England.
