A Water Sports Hub at Coatham will help to promote Redcar as active, sporty and vibrant. It will provide the infrastructure to support outdoor activities, water sports and related events – for example, surfing, wind-surfing, land yachting and kiteboarding – and will include showers/changing facilities/lockers, equipment store and hire, stables, and secure cycle parking.

The exterior of properties along the seafront, many of which are currently in poor condition, will also be re-decorated to create an attractive and welcoming streetscape at this key approach to the town centre.
