There is no shortage of good ideas to regenerate Exmouth, but many depend on public money that is likely to be increasingly scarce in future.

There is no shortage of good ideas to regenerate Exmouth, but many depend on public money that is likely to be increasingly scarce in future.

One example of regeneration that has been completed and paid for within a year, without any tax payers' money, is the resurfacing of the hard courts at Exmouth Lawn Tennis Club on The Maer.

The club now has first class hard court and grass court facilities available to local people and visitors.

Anyone who would like to try out the courts can attend the club open day on May 1 when Exmouth's Mayor, Councillor Darryl Nicholas, will officially open the courts at 2pm.
