A kiosk in a Leeds park that has been left empty for years will reopen after funding was secured.
Parents taking their children to Pudsey Park will be able to treat their young ones to a drink and ice-cream when the kiosk is reopened in the coming months. The kiosk has been left empty since pre-Covid but will now be reopened and operated by Leeds City Council after campaigning from local residents. Councillor Simon Seary welcomed the 'fantastic news', saying: 'After the last tenant left we took it and looked at what we could do with this historic building.
' He said that work to refurbish the building has started and that he hopes it will be open to the public for the summer. A spokesperson for Leeds City Council said: “We are pleased to confirm plans to reopen the refreshment kiosk at Pudsey Park.
