North Yorkshire's £10m High Street Fund Will Benefit Yorkshire Coast

Thursday, 5 September 2024 06:00

By Matthew Pells

North Yorkshire's Mayor wants to boost the county's high streets.

A new ten million pound High Streets fund should bring benefits to the Yorkshire Coast.

That's according to North Yorkshire Mayor - David Skaith.

He says the new county wide fund will help reinvigorate town centres.

David Skaith says the county wide fund will help reimagine high streets on the Yorkshire Coast.

Mayor Skaith added:

"Having run a small business in York for many years before I became Mayor, I have seen first-hand how the high street is changing and I am keen to see a high streets fund established which will support you, your communities and our region’s economy. The £10 million of high streets funding we have agreed in principle can make a real difference. Work is taking place now to develop all four funds further. There will be announcements on fund launches in the coming months."
