Community of Scarborough to be united at Summer Social

Coast and Vale Community Action's Totally Socially team is hosting events in Scarborough, as well as further afield, next month, to highlight the positive things happening in local communities.

Various events across the borough will all demonstrate the power of people pulling together.
