If the lake district is not attracting a diverse group of visitors then it should be looked at. Why isn't it. As a tourist destination, the more diverse it's visitors, the more visitors it attracts and therefore the more money it generates. Seems like a no brainer to me.

Pretty much. There's no point leaving money on the table and if a business isn't willing to change with the times, it'll be doomed to be left in the past. Lake District's core demographic is a very finite audience because it relies on older generations and when those older generations come to an end, the businesses of Lake District are gonna find themselves in the hardest of times if they can't adapt.
