PREMIER Resort Title Weakened. Danger ahead. We’re seeing our claim to be the Premier Resort of the UK being weakened by the constant loss of attractions and amenities which the typical visitor to our resort expects to be available.
We have no indoor swimming baths at the front, no ice rink open the year round and no passenger anchored balloon, no additional wide stage entertainment similar to the Winter Gardens, no replacement of the entertainment Pavilion which was originally situated on Boscombe Pier and a surfers reef which cannot be used and now we are informed that the end of the pier shows are to end on Bournemouth Pier. What a record.
A prior requirement in the new council’s future policy formed to boost our resort as the leading countrywide resort is to invest into more attractions for the thousands we hope will visit our town.
