Hi All, I can now confirm that RNLI will be fielding a modern inshore lifeboat to complement the William Riley display for the heritage weekend.

Hope that it will not be needed locally for a real life rescue, in the event of another thunderstorm like last weeks deluge.

The Timescale for updating the war memorial itself is entirely within your hands. Funding provided By the Town and Borough councils relates to improving the aspect and opening up the memorial site for better access, provision of electrical supply etc and general maintenance of the immediate surround...

As I said, I have no specific wish to move the memorial, but more specifically give it more visibility and p...

Thanks thomo and ian for those comments, I will work on answering Ian's comments over the next few days. To clarify the issue of why's and wherefore's about the proposal to link bringing the names up to date and refurbishing the Memorial Gardens I stress again that was purely my idea. There is no ul...
