T
he £25,000 race track was officially opened by Bispham Councillors Don Clapham and Paul Wilshaw, who donated from their Bispham Ward Fund £20,000 to provide pupils with this unique track. Without their generous donation, the scheme would not been affordable. Councillor Don Clapham said: “Westcliff is our only school in Bispham Ward and along with the excellent teaching and learning at the Academy we wanted this unique track. We believe that the pupils need to be fit and this track will support their health and well-being. These young pupils are our future in Blackpool and what better way of helping to make a difference as Ward Councillors.”
