  • Town Centre Economy Section 1: General News
    Business Partnerships Report – March 29, 2019 SectionTown Centr 1: Generale Economy News BLACKPOOL MUSEUM MOVES STEP CLOSER The planned new Blackpool Museum has moved a step closer to reality following the securing of £1.75m of support from the Coastal Communities Fund. The award, announced by Coastal Communities Minister, Jake Berry, means that the £13m project now has five of six funding streams confirmed. The final one, a bid to the National Lottery Heritage Fund, was submitted earlier this month and a decision is expected in June. The museum, which will be a celebration of Blackpool’s history as the birthplace of mass tourism and popular culture, is to be built within the resort’s first five-star hotel, the Sands Venue Resort, which is currently under construction on the Golden Mile. Planning permission for the hotel was granted earlier this month. It will feature artefacts, film, music and performance to tell the story of the resort’s entertainment history and it is envisaged it will attract up to 300,000 visitors a year. Access to the museum will be free for local people and it will create around 40 full-time jobs. Other North West projects to benefit from the latest round of CCF grants include £2.35m to create visitor attractions in Morecambe Bay and £772,000 for a scheme to link the coastal economies of Cleveleys and Fleetwood, including a refurbishment of Fleetwood market. ROYAL DAY TRIP TO BLACKPOOL The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge took a stroll on Blackpool’s famous promenade as part of a high-profile visit to the resort on March 6.
