Establish an Outdoor Shower on Morecambe Promenade for Public Use


Establish an Outdoor Shower on Morecambe Promenade for Public Use
The Issue
I am a local resident of Morecambe, UK, and a regular swimmer in Morecambe Bay. I believe that the addition of an outdoor shower on our beloved Promenade would greatly benefit all visitors to the area - families enjoying a day out at the beach , swimmers like myself along with jet skiers, kite surfers alike. Currently, there is no facility for rinsing off after spending time in the bay's waters. An outdoor shower would not only provide convenience but also promote hygiene and cleanliness.
We've already secured external funding at no cost to the local taxpayer and just need signatures to help local councillors push this through.
Moreover, according to data from VisitBritain (2019), Morecambe welcomed over 1 million tourists annually pre-pandemic. With such high footfall expected due to the Eden Project coming to the area it is essential that we provide amenities that cater to these visitors' needs while also enhancing their experience at our beautiful seaside town.
The implementation of this amenity will not only improve the quality of life for locals but will also make our town more attractive to tourists thus potentially boosting local economy through increased visitor spending.
Let's work together to make this small yet significant improvement in our community. Please sign this petition if you support establishing an outdoor shower on Morecambe Promenade for public use!
