Lifeguards Occupations Swimming Costume Swimming Trunks


EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this nostalgic print from June 1976, we see the dedicated members of the Whickham Voluntary Lifeguards proudly patrolling South Beach at South Shields. The lifeguards, dressed in their vibrant swimming costumes and trunks, exude a sense of purpose and camaraderie as they pose for the camera. In the bottom row, from left to right, we have Mary Edwards, Susan Gibson, and Gillian Davison. Their smiles reflect their passion for ensuring beachgoers' safety during those sunny summer days. On top of them stand Andrea Watson, Lynn Blenkinsop, Kathy Hindmarsh, and Ruth Kirkham - strong women who fearlessly dive into action when duty calls. Amidst this group of remarkable individuals stands Bill Lawson - a man whose presence completes this team's unwavering commitment to safeguarding lives on South Beach. Together with his fellow lifeguards, he embodies bravery and resilience. This snapshot not only captures an era but also showcases the vital role these lifeguards played in protecting swimmers during the 1970s. It serves as a reminder of their selflessness and dedication to public service. As we gaze upon this Memory Lane Print by Mirrorpix today, let us appreciate these unsung heroes who ensured that visitors could enjoy safe swimming experiences along South Beach all those years ago.
