- Funded on Friday, 20th August 2021

Story
The Pier Towers are a heritage landmark in the town of Withernsea. The aspiration and vision of Withernsea Pier & Promenade Association, who have secured a 99-year lease of the Towers, has plans to construct an Observation Platform as part of a four stage project that will see re-construction of its coastal Pier. Due in part to covid-19 the building costs for the first stage have now increased, leaving a £60k deficit in funding. The shortfall has to be raised before the end of the summer to commence building works in the Autumn. Your support to the building of the Pier Platform will have a direct increase to Tourism footfall and importantly with provide residents, local business and visitors with a unique and new destination attraction in the town.

3 years agoThere is lots of activity in the background, working on funding applications and facilitating events at Pier Towers. The summer has started busy and thankfully the weather is bringing families to Withernsea #staycation. WPPA are grateful for the support to the Pier Project. I am giving this a last push on the JustGiving page created and hope that you are in a position to make a donation to get me a little closely to my target. Please help if you can, and if you are visiting Holderness, please visit Pier Towers, you will be warmly welcomed.

3 years agoThe interest and support to rebuilding Withernsea Pier has been great, thank you. There is a little way to go yet to achieve the target of £2,000 to get this attraction built through its four stages of development, so we will continue to pursue our fundraising goal. Please help if you can, it is a project to be enjoyed by local residents, businesses, community and visitors for many years. The drawing below shows what will be a stunning building that will be at the end of a 560 foot-long pier, strolling over the north sea.
