SAFETY INFORMATION
Please TAKE CARE on the fossil hunting walks – wear stout footwear, and clothing suitable for the weather.
BEWARE OF THE TRAFFIC on the road between the Theatre and the Boys’ Club and the Church- there is a back route along the front and up to the church behind the theatre which avoids much of the road - and gives wonderful views of the coast.
St.John’s Ambulance are kindly providing First Aid cover.
Lyme Regis is currently undergoing a £25million coastal reconstruction scheme, which is due to finish next year. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause to the activities in this event.
