With the news that people can sunbathe outdoors, at a safe social distance, this is the question we are all asking. We contacted BCP on 11/5/20 to find out.

Eager as we are for fresh air and sunshine, safety has to be the priority. Sat safe everyone.
Due to the much published risk to health from contracting COVID-19, we have taken the regrettable decision to postpone our AGM on Thursday 26 March. Although, at the time of writing, there is no restriction on public gatherings, it seems it is only a matter of time before there will be. We wanted to give you as much notice as we could so, rather than waiting for the decision to be taken out of hands, we decided to act now. Apologies for any inconvenience caused, but we hope you will understand ...

The lodges had a requirement that one of the lodges needed to be suitable for assisted living with specification to suit accessibility standards for less able-bodied users. In January 2018 BBC ag ...
Beach Hut owners making their way down to the beach in the last two weeks have been concerned at the aroma and look of the water. The water has taken on a colour of rusty brown with layers of scum on the surface. Fears around what the source of the brown colour and smell can be allayed, its not caused by the sewage system unable to cope with the heavy downpours that can be experienced in a British summer and it is not caused by polution from a stricken ship leaking oil into our water, The cause ...
