Seaside FM 105.3

After months of uncertainty, the future of Hornsea's biggest employer has finally been secured after it was saved by a West Yorkshire building society.

The Hornsea Freeport shopping village has been taken over by the Leeds Building Society for an undiclosed sum after the previous owners, Hornsea Estates Limited and Hornsea Estates (No 2) Limited, entered into administration in July 2009. The building society established a wholly owned subsidiary, Headrow Commercial Property Services, in order to acquire the business.

East Riding Council is to help coastal communities by buying homes which residents fear could be lost to the sea.

Homeowners in Withernsea and along the East Coast could benefit from the £1.2m funding package secured by the council which will see them buy homes which could disappear as a result of coastal erosion over the next 15 years, and then lease them back to their owners.

Hull Truck’s spring / summer 2010 season, which sees the theatre celebrate the first anniversary in its new home, will take audiences on a trip to Paris, to see the King and even under the sea!
