OPEN DAY This is a very happy day for the young people of this town







I am being a bit self centred here this was a wonderful day for me to see the Club being opened in a way that most of us dreamed of. Over the years many people one of whom I must mention Melanie Owen without her help and others the club would have certainly closed. To have given there time and sometimes money to keep the Club open for the youngsters of this town is commendable. This time with hard work and a lot of sincerity for the project I am sure it will succeed. If today was anything to go by with the turn out of the Lyme people it cannot fail.You will see in the pictures Lyme Regis Mayor Mrs Ellis, James Ward Rice (Dorset Youth Service) Marcus Dixon (Lyme Regis Development Trust) and supporters and helpers in the running of the club.

Ted Street friend and Councillor We shall miss you.




It is with great sadness that my friend Ted Street passed away in Australia on December 23rd 2010. I am very grateful with my wife Josephine to have visited him in Adelaide last February. We were made very welcome by all the family and spent a wonderful evening with them. Certainly at that time Ted had lost none of his own particular personality. His memory of Lyme was a good as ever and still as passionate about the town of his birth. It has been a priviledge to have known him
