Withernsea: Seafront Regeneration - FAQs

For the past two years, Withernsea Town Council and East Riding of Yorkshire Council have&nbsp;been&nbsp;collaborating&nbsp;on a seafront regeneration project based on community feedback. In early 2023, Northern Shores Marine Consultancy Ltd was appointed to conduct a feasibility study into the proposals, funded by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund. The project aims to enhance the Valley Gardens and Central Promenade, support local businesses, create employment, and offer a diverse and inclusive experience for visitors and residents.<span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559738&quot;:210,&quot;335559739&quot;:210,&quot;335559740&quot;:300}">&nbsp;The proposed project is broken into three elements:&nbsp;<ol start="1"><li data-aria-level="1" data-aria-posinset="1" data-font="Calibri" data-leveltext="%1." data-list-defn-props="{&quot;335552541&quot;:0,&quot;335559685&quot;:720,&quot;335559991&quot;:360,&quot;469769242&quot;:[65533,2],&quot;469777803&quot;:&quot;left&quot;,&quot;469777804&quot;:&quot;%1.&quot;,&quot;469777815&quot;:&quot;hybridMultilevel&quot;}" data-listid="1">The introduction of beach&nbsp;huts&nbsp;along the front of the Memorial Gardens and the Fishing Compound.&nbsp;</li></ol><ol start="2"><li data-aria-level="1" data-aria-posinset="2" data-font="Calibri" data-leveltext="%1." data-list-defn-props="{&quot;335552541&quot;:0,&quot;335559685&quot;:720,&quot;335559991&quot;:360,&quot;469769242&quot;:[65533,2],&quot;469777803&quot;:&quot;left&quot;,&quot;469777804&quot;:&quot;%1.&quot;,&quot;469777815&quot;:&quot;hybridMultilevel&quot;}" data-listid="1"><span data-ccp-charstyle="normaltextrun" data-ccp-charstyle-defn="{&quot;ObjectId&quot;:&quot;c70895f7-4706-441f-aa96-423bb347e3ce|58&quot;,&quot;ClassId&quot;:1073872969,&quot;Properties&quot;:[469775450,&quot;normaltextrun&quot;,201340122,&quot;1&quot;,134233614,&quot;true&quot;,469778129,&quot;normaltextrun&quot;,335572020,&quot;1&quot;,469778324,&quot;Default Paragraph Font&quot;]}">The&nbsp;installation&nbsp;of&nbsp;10 micro business kiosks in Valley Gardens, creating a&nbsp;‘coastal market’.&nbsp;These kiosks are&nbsp;designed to be small and low-cost,&nbsp;providing&nbsp;space for&nbsp;micro-businesses and new&nbsp;start-ups, alongside&nbsp;supporting larger seasonal markets and events.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ol><ol start="3"><li data-aria-level="1" data-aria-posinset="3" data-font="Calibri" data-leveltext="%1." data-list-defn-props="{&quot;335552541&quot;:0,&quot;335559685&quot;:720,&quot;335559991&quot;:360,&quot;469769242&quot;:[65533,2],&quot;469777803&quot;:&quot;left&quot;,&quot;469777804&quot;:&quot;%1.&quot;,&quot;469777815&quot;:&quot;hybridMultilevel&quot;}" data-listid="1">Formalisation of the&nbsp;pedestrianisation-priority&nbsp;section of&nbsp;the&nbsp;Central Promenade from the HM Coastguard station to the Fishing Compound.

So far with this funding we have appointed a consultant and have had the necessary architechtural drawings and lighting and tree surveys done to support our planning application, which will hopefully have been submitted by mid-October. We are extremely confident that we will be successful in a grant of £22.5k from Active Growth in the very near future, once the feasibility studies are finalised. We have been delivering tennis as an after school club at Withernsea High School and hope to follow on from this by going into the local primary schools in 2024. We also participated in the Year 5 Festival of Sport at Withernsea High School in July 2023, which we had a fantastic response to. With some funding behind us, we plan to start the construction on the Lascelles Avenue tennis courts in Spring 2024, and hope for two out of three of the courts to be complete and available for use by Summer 2024. Anyone wanting to try out our social short tennis sessions at Pavilion Leisure Centre on Mon &amp;amp; Wed evenings 7-8pm, all ages and abilities welcome, please drop us an email @ WithernseaTennisAssociation@outlook.com
