Dale Sourbutts, who founded New Travel Holidays in March, has appointed Paul Foster as a director. The pair met more than 30 years ago when Foster began his travel career straight from school with Althams Travel.

The pair are searching for around 10 experienced agents to join them. “The plan is to scale it by recruiting self-employed homeworkers,” said Sourbutts, a former managing director of Cruise 1st. "I'd like five or six initially, but if 10 come along, I'll take all 10. If 50 come along, I won’t know what to do."
