“Cinema operators I am sure will be asked on a regular basis to consider various sites not only in Scotland but the UK. Therefore it is essential that the voice and desire of the people

“Kirkcaldy’s history down the years is steep in venues from Dysart to the Links and more, we simple are a Cinema Town.

“However, history alone is not enough to convince any possible Operator to invest in our Town. We need the support of everyone who believes in the Cinema campaign to sign up now, and I am sure we can reach our goal of least 10,000 signatures in a short space of time.

“My message to any Cinema Operator looking to invest in any new Complex, is that you will not find a better place than Kirkcaldy at this present time. People in Kirkcaldy have a great desire for this exciting opportunity to happen, and more importantly from the Operators point of view, will fully support it.
