Virgin Group’s luxury hotel brand has already raised more than £114,899 for the cause thanks to 517 public donations, and has set a fundraising goal of £160,420.

Intrepid Travel, Tui and Charitable Travel have also launched their own fundraising appeals to provide support to NGO partners and tourism dependent communities in Morocco hardest hit by the quake.
