EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we witness the iconic North East comedian Bobby Thompson taking center stage as he re-opens the Church of England's Children's Society Shop in Dean Road, South Shields. The year is 1983, and the shop has just undergone an extensive refurbishment to better serve its charitable cause. The image captures a momentous occasion - the opening ceremony of this beloved establishment that aims to support children in need. Bobby Thompson, known for his wit and humor, brings his unique charm to the event, infusing it with laughter and joy. As he cuts the ribbon with a mischievous grin on his face, one can only imagine how his presence must have lifted spirits and drawn crowds. This snapshot not only commemorates an important milestone for both the shop and its mission but also provides us with a glimpse into the vibrant atmosphere of 1980s South Shields. It serves as a reminder of how local communities come together to support charitable causes through retail initiatives. As we admire this photograph print by NCJ, let us appreciate not only Bobby Thompson's contribution but also acknowledge all those involved in making this reopening possible. Their dedication ensures that vital funds are raised for vulnerable children within their community – truly exemplifying humanity at its finest during an era marked by compassion and goodwill towards others.
