The Tourist Information Centre

Scarborough Borough Council (SBC) closed the Whitby Tourist Information Centre (TIC) on its previous high profile site and let the building out for 21 years on a commercial lease. We considered the TIC an essential port of call for visitors, helping them get the best out of their time in Whitby. We proposed alternative uses for Whitby TIC and challenged the final decision to downgrade the facility.

Properly Maintained Piers and Quays

The piers and quays are in urgent need of remedial work and proper maintenance.

We are fighting to save and preserve the Piers and Harbour for the benefit of future generations. We also want to ensure that all harbour income is for Whitby Harbour use only.

Speaking up for our Town

We want to protect Whitby as the place we have grown up in, moved to and loved and where our children can have a secure future. We recognise the need for change but want to hold onto all that is good about our community.

A Lively, Working, Historic Harbour

Trawlers land their fish elsewhere due to the lack of facilities & adequate dredging.

The East Side fishing parties and berth holders have no toilet / shower facilities.
