Yorkshire named as Europe's leading destination at World Travel Awards

10:00am Tuesday 3rd September 2013 in News By Mike Laycock, Chief reporter

TOURISM bosses are jubilant after Yorkshire was named as Europes Leading Destination at the World Travel Awards.

The region overcame stiff competition from a range of capital cities including London, Berlin and Madrid to win the award at a ceremony in Antalya, Turkey.

The tourism agency Welcome to Yorkshire was also recognised, winning Europes Leading Marketing Campaign for the second time.

Chief executive Gary Verity said: Its fantastic to see Yorkshire taking its rightful place as one of the top holiday destinations in Europe.

Its a real validation of both Welcome to Yorkshires work and the efforts of the thousands of attractions, restaurants, accommodation providers and other tourism businesses which make this county great.

He said Yorkshire was the first location other than a major city or country to have won Europes Best Destination in 17 years of the award, and Welcome to Yorkshire was the first to have won Best Marketing Campaign twice.

News of this award comes off the back of a fantastic year already for Yorkshire and the growing excitement about Yorkshires hosting of the 2014 Grand Depart of the Tour de France. This is one of the biggest awards in international tourism, and Im very proud to see Yorkshire at the top.

Welcome to Yorkshire has won seven European and World Travel Awards since it launched in 2009 beating globally recognised travel brands and some of the worlds leading destination management organisations.

Coro Health Launches Suite of Therapeutic Music and Spirituality Apps

Posted on by

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Coro Health, LLC, a new media healthcare company, has launched a breakthrough suite of therapeutic music and spirituality mHealth apps for use by individuals as well as by professionals in a broad range of healthcare environments. The programs are available in the Apple iTunes store and offer free previews.

The suite includes six apps, each targeted to a particular segment of the healthcare community. These include MusicFirst: Eldercare, MusicFirst: Alzheimers, MusicFirst: Oncology, MusicFirst: Expecting, MusicFirst: Calm Baby and CoroFaith: mFaith.

Coro Health was founded in 2009, offering personalized clinically-proven therapeutic music programs to healthcare organizations and aging communities. Early adopters of Coro Healths MusicFirst include over 1000 long-term care communities, hospitals, rehabilitation agencies, home health companies, consumers and third party media distributors, supporting over 100,000 people per day.

The app versions of the Coro Health products, including the addition of mFaith, revolutionize the delivery of wellness support to individuals and professionals throughout the healthcare community, says Coro Health CCO Leanne Flask. Our apps are the first to address the challenge of making therapeutic music as well as spiritual content personalized, accessible and affordable.

Unlike music radio apps that provide genre-based music based on popularity, MusicFirsts programs are designed by a respected team of music therapists, designers and neuroscientists specifically for use in home as well as in a broad range of healthcare environments.

While still giving the individual the choice of genre, drawing upon a library of over 1000 hours of music, MusicFirst allows the individuals, family caregivers and healthcare professionals to select personalized therapeutic music with particular outcomes in mind. For example, for individuals working with the elderly, choices include Energy, Relax and Sleep.

CoroFaith: mFaith is the first mHealth app to offer individuals access to a customized audio library of inspirational readings, prayers, sermons and meditations from the religious or spiritual tradition of their choice. Drawing from over 1000 hours of content, CoroFaith was designed to provide spiritual and religious continuity for individuals from a broad range of beliefs and traditions for personal use as well as in healthcare settings.

Individuals can tap into their customized program through mobile devices, operating iOs 4.3 or higher.
