If you get caught by the Coastguard they just inform you of the ban. If you are caught by the Police they will issue verbal caution and take your name etc. Fylde Borough Council who currently own the beach are waiting on the findings of a health and safety review and also the results of the investigation into the death of a tourist in 2002. Both the Coastguard and the Police believe that the ban will be lifted and the sport allowed to resume under H&S guidelines Colin Kite surfing is still permitted

You WILL need insurance and MUST be a member of a buggy club ( BBC covers this ). Policing of beach use MUST be done by those practicing the sport. All in all good news but the process is slow and will take some time, I suggested to the guy to place a section on Lytham council website to keep the public informed of progress and he agreed to do it.

Thanks Colin Rodgers

If someone else wants to confirm this then you can find Chris Hollands ontact details at :- www.fylde.gov.uk/content/...ryID=22166 Good news for our sport as many other councils will be looking at Lytham to make thier decisions.
