'ddiogel' Pontio: Dim prif weithredwr your comments Jeannie Warbey from Gt Chesterford, Essex We had a wonderful time at the camp in 1963. It was mum's first holiday where she didn't have to cook. Dad and Mum had loads of time with each other. Us three children verging on our teens had non-stop entertainment on site. Dad did the Nobbly Knees contest and won I think, I entered Miss Butlin, the other entries were so sophisticated. I went horse riding, using the cable car to get there... so much fun. Mum loved the wake-up music so much. So when we got home I found the single of it and bought it for her it was called, The Singing Piano by Tolchard Evans. I still have it. Mon Mar 9 10:01:04 2009 Ray Barnett, Nuneaton, Warwickshire I went on holiday to Butlin's, Pwllheli, in 1966, while the World Cup of Football was taking place. I remember watching a couple of matches there, I was aged 15 at the time and had a wonderful time. I remember the camp being split into two, with the railway running through the middle of it. Also there were four houses i.e. Duke, Gloucester, York and one other. I do remember being woken up everything morning at 7am with the news. Also they used to play a song every morning and it goes like this. 'Good morning, good morning, good morning, it's another lovely day, for when it's wet it's fine at Butlins, we never let it spoil your holiday.' I think there may have been another verse. My sister, who was four at the time, wanted to go on the carousel, so my dad took her on and was really enjoying it, but 15 minutes later the carousel was still going round and round. We were't sure if the person who was looking after the ride had gone for a cup of tea or something, but my dad was none too happy and began shouting to my mother to try and find the person in charge. He eventually turned up and let my dad off the ride, and surprise, surprise he has never been on one again. This was my one and only stay at Butlin's, apart from a day visit to Butlin's Skegness, but I have fond memories of my stay. Mon Mar 2 14:16:01 2009 Miss P Moss I am looking for any memories or pictures of Arthur Joseph Moss who was playing in a band called The Happy Wanderers in Butlins, Pwllheli from about 1947 to 1970. Mon Mar 2 09:16:26 2009 paul off flint I met my wife there in 1995. She'd been going for the last 30 years with her family. Then I went with friends on an end of season morris dancing weekend where we met and we got married a year later. We have been back for holidays. It has very fine memories for me and my wife.

  • Problem Oriented Policing Working in Partnership to Create a Safer
    SAFER HOLIDAY WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP TO CREATE A SAFER HOLIDAY ENVIRONMENT AVON AND SOMERSET CONSTABULARY, PORTISHEAD, ENGLAND, 1999 SUMMARY: The Butlins Family Entertainment Resort, Minehead is a holiday complex standing on a site of 165 acre. It is home to 20 alcohol outlets operating under the umbrella of one Residential On-Licence and over a number of years transposed from a family holiday venue to one that catered for a diverse market. In essence it is a small town without the norms, values and relationships of a traditional community. Every night is a PARTY NIGHT! At the beginning of 1997 there was a coincidental change of local management at both Butlins and the Avon and Somerset Constabulary. Forming an alliance there was a recognition that positive action had to be taken to address the crime problem that existed at the resort predominantly in the categories of burglary, theft, criminal damage, assault, theft of and from motor vehicles and the misuse of drugs. A new beat was created that was co-terminus with the boundaries of the resort and a beat officer selected who possessed the necessary qualities to tackle a long term project and forge ahead if confronted with difficulties. He was empowered and assured the support of the Constabulary in his interaction with Butlins at both operational and strategic levels. Over a period of two years the Constabulary and Butlins worked closely together addressing environmental factors, policies, practices and staff training at the resort that collectively contributed to a 71.5% reduction in crime over that period. Throughout, the SARA model for problem solving was utilised and regularly revisited to generate a series of creative responses that were introduced into the resort.

  • Historic-Site-Butlins-Skegness.Pdf
    Historical Sites Butlin’s Skegness Butlin’s Skegness The Butlin’s brand name was to define the family holiday experience, and in doing so it was to change the face of the British leisure industry. The historical context Holiday trends in Britain in the early 20th century By the late 19th century, the railways had opened up most of the country to tourism and holidays in the countryside or, for most people, at the seaside. The initial beneficiaries of cheaper transport were the middle classes, but by the turn of the century the tradition of the British working-class holiday was firmly established, especially to seaside resorts, whether as a long stay visit or a daytrip. Resorts such as Blackpool, Scarborough and Southend became popular, and a whole entertainment industry sprung up to cater to tourists. The census of 1911 reveals that 55% of English people were visiting the seaside on day excursions, while 20% were talking holidays requiring accommodation. Many of the visitors could not afford to stay at expensive seafront hotels and sought out cheaper accommodation in guesthouses and “bed and breakfast” houses. The first guesthouses had a reputation for being run-down places, ruled by tyrannical landladies with lists of rules and regulations. As standards improved, families often returned to the same guesthouses year after year. Camping became popular in the late 19th century, and after the First World War, “pioneer camps” opened, offering basic accommodation with a “hands on” approach. Life under canvas increased in popularity in the inter-war period in line with the trend towards healthy outdoor living.

  • The Butlins Future Report a Study of How the Changing Shape of British Families Will Impact on Holidaying in 25 Years Time Introduction
    The Butlins Future Report A study of how the changing shape of British families will impact on holidaying in 25 years time Introduction Contents Introduction Page 1 Rise of the Relation Vacation Page 2 Expanding for Generation Xtra Page 5 New Breed of Super-Gs Page 10 3D Dads Page 13 Leisure Economy Page 16 Conclusion Page 19 Butlins: Evolving the Experience Page 20 Contact Details Page 21 Introduction The Butlins Future Report looks forward 25 years to examine the exciting potential of British holidays and family fun in 2037. Having just celebrated our 75th birthday, our research comes as we prepare to launch the most ambitious hotel in Butlins history – Wave Hotel & Apartments at Bognor Regis. To celebrate this we wanted to take our insight to a new level and understand what family life could be like when we reach our 100th birthday. This report isn’t about hovering hotel rooms and robot-run resorts. When it comes to holidaying in Britain, our research highlights that intergenerational re-connection breaks, offering the chance to create sparkling memories, will become increasingly fundamental to family life by 2037. Our own Butlins insight team worked with Trajectory, UK trend forecasters, to assess the changing shape and needs of families in 25 years time and identify emerging lifestyle trends which will impact on how we holiday in the future. This is underpinned by quantitative research amongst young people, parents and grandparents on their hopes and aspirations for family time in the future. To add to this, we’ve also asked young future-gazers to tell us what they want from their hotel of the future.
