Implement Seaside Fund to support businesses through difficult winter trading months

The Member of the Welsh Parliament for Aberconwy – Janet Finch-Saunders MS – had today (25 August) called on the Welsh Government to implement a tailored Seaside Town Fund strategy, that considers the “difficult winter trading months ahead.”

The Welsh Conservatives have repeatedly called on the Welsh Government to establish Seaside Town Fund, to support community regeneration. Such a Fund would recognise the higher retail vacancy rates and higher levels of deprivation in these towns, when compared to other parts of Wales.
