Filey Town's Mayor has welcomed the recent investment in the town's play parks.
The four hundred thousand pound refurbishment and investment of Filey's play parks was completed in April and was part of the 10-year vision for Filey.
The play areas in Glen Gardens, Copse Hill and Filey Country Park have been renovated so they can be enjoyed year-round and all now feature accessible equipment.
The refurbishment of the parks was part of the £1 million fund that was allocated to the ‘Vision for Filey’, which was started by the former Scarborough Borough Council and developed jointly with Filey Town Council.
Mayor Jacqui Holden-Banks says that the refurbishment has had a positive impact on the local community.
As well as the £400,000 to redevelop play areas, a further £120,000 has been earmarked for the refurbishment of Filey’s paddling pool.
Work is also under way on a £300,000 refurbishment of chalets along the beach front and planning permission for a skate park has been granted, for which £328,000 has been invested.
This is the Coast is committed to providing a daily local news service for the Yorkshire Coast. We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.
If you appreciate what This is the Coast does, and would like to help support our journalism, please consider supporting us on a monthly basis today.
A small contribution from all our readers would really help support independent journalism for the Yorkshire Coast.
