In the October edition of Borough Cast we bring news of plans for a network of warm spaces across the borough this winter. We also set the record straight on some rather disappointing stories about us in the national press. Our colleague Steve explains about proposals to develop a new ‘cyber cluster’ on the Yorkshire coast, and we find out about the devastating potential impact of drugs on our teenage children. Finally, as Halloween approaches, we raid the sound effects cupboard to tell you about a new way to explore Whitby and Scarborough.
