Scout leaders say the future of the 1st Bispham group has been
thrown into doubt following a tenfold increase in ground rent by Blackpool
Council

TOWN hall bosses have pledged to continue supporting Blackpool
Scouts as a rent hike of 1,399 per cent threatens groups with closure.
Scout leaders have launched a campaign for fair rents after The Gazette
revealed how ground rates at their Bispham headquarters have shot from
£10 a year to £1,400.
Although Blackpool Council says the 30 year tariff is a “fair rate” and not negotiable, they say they will work with the Scouts to look at the terms of the lease.
The group has set up a blog so people can keep up to date with what we are doing and comment on them. Click here to access
