Description

Aviemore 1Aviemore and the Cairngorms Destination Management Orgainsation (ACDMO) is the first true detination management organisation (DMO) to be established in Scotland.  ACDMO was born out of an active business led marketing group that established ACDMO in November 2006.  The aim is to create Aviemore and the Cairngorms as a world class mountain destination making it a great place to live and work.  

The ACDMO Community Trust was created to manage and adminster all the activities of this organisation.

  1. To explore the potential of a visitor voluntary payback initiative
  2. To develop and deliver a small grants scheme that would be directed towards 'making a real difference' a ground level.
  3. The influence of public sector policies at local and national levels.
