The content is written and edited by expert writers before submitting to independent.co.uk. Articles will remain live indefinitely, ensuring continued benefit through SEO and a direct link to each partner’s website. 

Topics span several sought-after niche areas of the travel industry, such as ski, spa, and family travel along with events, days out, attractions, romantic getaways, luxury islands and more. Articles also cover popular lifestyle topics such as homes, gardens, food, drink, health, fitness, finance and beauty, as well as education and business.
