Well that tallies, at least they're not counting it as their asset.  So who does own it?   Is it Council-owned and for use by anybody?   (No, I'm not planing a wedding Mrs C).

Meanwhile in the Gazette 'Tourism group hails Warren campain "resounding success". '    Visitor numbers have rocketed.    Who's in charge over there?! http://www.dawlishnewspapers.co.uk/news.cfm?id=26311&headline=Tourism%20group%20hails%20Warren%20campaign%20%E2%80%98resounding%20success%E2%80%99

Because it’s a small company only abbreviated accounts need to be submitted, but it has to file an annual CIC report detailing how it continues to engage appropriately with its stakeholders and satisfy the community interest.   This information is available from Companies House, and I’ve sent a copy to the Webmaster to attach here as a PDF.

@roberta Are you sure? Could you post evidence? At some point the begging bowl will come before the Town Council Finance and General Purposes Commitee. I recall they got 5k last year in spite of that lamentable rant in the programme and dismally organised events the previous year.

I wonder which land they'll compulsorily purchase to build the road to transport all these new residents and visitors.

So just clothes?  Am surprised.  I'm not their target market but I'd have thought better food concessions would improve the offering to visitors.  I might be inclined to spend money if there was more than pub grub or a bag of chips on offer.   (That's just my commercial opinion, if the owners want clothes, it's up to them). Happy to hear about the cycle hire although I wonder how long it ...

@Michael do you know what mix of retail products are intended?   Have any other parties previously tried and failed to get planning permission for the site?
