BUSINESSES have been encouraged to give themselves a boost on the beaches by setting up shop on the seaside.

Seaford Town Council is looking for a firm to rent one of its West View Concession Huts on the town’s beach.

The hut is available to rent by the day between April and September this year.

A town council spokeswoman said: “With the days lengthening and the evenings getting lighter, everyone is getting excited for the arrival of spring and summer.

“This is an incredible opportunity.”
