I hope it will be again. I am thinking of getting the Beach Mission started again. any thoughts appreciated. I know that an elderly man from Hoylake Evangelical Church at the roundabout used to run it and as I was a team member at the Cricieth Beach Mission for several years I thought it would help to regenerate the use of the prom. Also wouldn't it be great to have the old Lifeboat station made a listed building. Wow what a packed beach. I hope it will be again.

OoooErr mother! Sadly, in the 70s and 80s I knicknamed this part of the prom Dog T**** Alley as dog walkers never seemed to clean up after their dogs.
