NORTH Somerset Council is on the lookout for a new operator to get a "popular park concession" back open in Weston.

Just before Christmas, the operator for Clarence Park Cafe retired and handed the lease back to the council.

The period of the lease is up for 15 years.

Residents have until April 18 to register their interest.

Posting on social media, Cllr Mike Bell, leader of North Somerset Council, said: "The lease opportunity for Clarence Park Cafe is now live for interested parties to submit bids. The full details are here: https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert...

"The previous operator retired just before Christmas and handed the lease back to the council. Now we need to find a new operator to get this popular park concession back open as soon as possible.

"If you are interested - or know anyone who is - please take a look and share. The closing date is April 18."
