"This funding will support the transformation of the Ice Bowl into a top class visitor attraction, with state of the art facilities including an Olympic sized ice rink.
"The new facility will also provide improved access to health and wellbeing services to the local community. This is a flagship project for our council and the benefits will reach far beyond the local area. Now more than ever we welcome this investment which supports tourism, economic activity, job creation and employment. I look forward to being part of this project as it develops."
