RESIDENTS are being asked to consider turning their homes into bed and breakfast accommodation to tackle a shortage.
Gravesham Tourist Information Centre says it urgently needs rooms for visitors.
Homeowners with empty rooms are being urged to consider starting a business.
A spokesman said: "Many people in Kent offer bed and breakfast accommodation and make their empty rooms earn an income.
"Don't be put off if you thought there would probably be too much red tape involved because you might be pleasantly surprised at how easy it can be."
