The fourth and final phase of Mid Ulster District Council's Town and Village Spruce Up scheme is nearing completion.

More than £170,000 has been made available to improve over 30 business properties in the area.

Almost £1 million has been invested in improving business properties internally and externally since the scheme's launch in 2019. This latest round of funding brings the total number of business properties to benefit from the scheme to 200.

Chair of the Council's Development Committee, Councillor Sean Clarke, said: "This has been an immensely popular scheme which has brought tangible benefits not just to each property which has benefited from funding, but to our towns and villages as a whole which look and feel more attractive and as a result, become a greater draw for shoppers and visitors. I look forward to seeing the final properties completed."

Work to the current properties which are to receive funding under the scheme is expected to reach completion in the autumn.
