Babs holds a deep connection to Butlin's, being a cherished member of this community (click here to read Babs' story).

Today, Babs remains a beacon of inspiration for everyone and is well-versed in all things Clacton.

Meet Dave

Dave is a remarkable member of our community and undoubtedly one of the finest organists I have ever known. His music is enchanting and brings joy to everyone who hears it. He played a significant role at Butlins, where his performances helped campers have a wonderful time dancing and enjoying the entertainment. Even now, Dave continues to share his talent on various websites, showcasing his incredible skills. He cherishes the memories we all have from Butlins and has graciously shared his story on this website.

Mandy

Meet Mandy

 From our very first conversation, we have grown increasingly close, eventually becoming like a family at Butlin's. Mandy shares some truly amazing stories about her experiences there and holds a deep affection for the name. Despite her busy schedule with demanding horses, she remains a warm-hearted individual who cherishes every aspect of Butlin's. As the god-daughter of Sir Billy Butlin, she often reflects fondly on her time spent at the Pwllheli camp.

Mandy's grandfather, Major Frank Bond (see the story here), is an amazing story to read as you see a connection to the rock gardens at Pwllheli.
