Fantastic and very welcome news – congratulations to the Keep Bankie Park Green group and the Anstruther community!

I was pleased to meet up with the community group on several occasions and to co-ordinate a letter from myself as the local Member of Parliament, and cross-party MSP’s reflecting support for the community campaign which while supporting the need for a new care home, objected to Bankie Park as the location.

Well done to all those who worked hard to make their views knownBANKIE PARK UPDATE

It was great to meet with campaigners in Anstruther today to discuss the engagement process which has been running recently regarding the proposal to build the replacement care home for Ladywalk House on part of Bankie Park.

Bankie Park was the preferred option because it would have ensured that our residents could remain in their local community and the existing site of the care home could be returned to parkland. I said at the community council in July that this process has been about engaging in an open, honest and transparent way. As part of the process we rely heavily on the community to share their views on many proposals to help the service build on the services we provide throughout Fife.

I would like to thank the community for engaging in this process with us and to everyone who made contact with the service with their views.

Following the extensive engagement process with the community I can confirm that we have listened to the views of the majority in the process and decided that Bankie Park is no longer a viable option and is now withdrawn from the process.

Even though Bankie Park has been withdrawn, work continues to find a suitable alternative for Ladywalk House which shall allow the service to provide the facilities which shall match the fantastic level of care that is received by the residents who live in the home. … See MoreSee Less

It was good to meet with Michael Jones, MD of Fishers Services, and to see the new headquarters at Edenfields in Cupar, which houses 14 administrative staff and management. Fishers has gone from strength to strength over the last year and the opening of the new HQ consolidates the company’s presence in Cupar. It is also one of the area’s largest employers and it was good to hear how they are working to create job opportunities locally.

Following on from my Broadband surgery last week I am pleased to hear that more premises across Fife will now be able to upgrade to faster fibre broadband through the £428 million Digital Scotland Superfast Broadband roll-out.

I know there is work to be done in several areas in North East Fife and I have been pressing for this, but thanks to the programme more than 900,000 premises across Scotland are able to connect to the new network including premises in Ceres, Crail and St Andrews as well as Dunfermline, Kirkcaldy and Kelty.

Across the country around 500 new fibre street cabinets are now live and more than 11,800km of cable has been laid by engineers from Openreach, who are continuing work on the ground into 2019.

Fibre broadband offers fast and reliable broadband connections at speeds of up to 80Mbps1and there are many suppliers in the marketplace to choose from. Local people need to sign up for the new, faster services with an internet service provider, as upgrades are not automatic.

I am pleased that in addition to this investment, the Scottish Government is not stopping there. The Reaching 100% programme, backed by an initial £600 million investment, plans to deliver superfast broadband access to every home and business in Scotland by the end of 2021 – the only part of the UK to do so. … See MoreSee Less
