Telford & Wrekin Council has submitted plans to improve shop frontages at The Parade in Donnington.

Improvements, which will be funded by the Council’s Pride in Our High Street programme, have been proposed for units 1 and 2, 4-13 and 15 and will include new shopfront glazing and frontages, external shutters and updated signage.

Subject to planning approval, contractor Morris Property will carry out the works this summer and aim to complete them by the autumn.

Morris Property completed the renovation of shop units on Limes Walk in Oakengates earlier this year as part of the town’s Theatre Quarter project.

Pride in Our High Street is supporting all these businesses on The Parade with a series of facade grants.

The facade grant can range from £500 to £3,000 and can be used to paint shop frontages and replace signage where needed, repaint roller shutters and replace roller shutters with retractable trellis which looks more appealing on the high street.
