EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1950s in Westerhope, Northumberland. The image captures the favorite game among the local children of this quaint town - golf. With great enthusiasm, they have embraced this sport since their club professional, Jack Makepeace, generously offered free lessons to any junior players. The picture showcases a heartwarming moment as Makepeace patiently instructs young Joyce Hadwin (12) on how to clear a bunker. His expertise and passion for the game shine through as he guides her with precision and care. The determination in Joyce's eyes is evident as she listens attentively and prepares herself for the swing. This snapshot not only encapsulates a cherished pastime but also symbolizes an era when community spirit thrived. It speaks volumes about the power of mentorship and how one person's generosity can ignite a lifelong love for sports in impressionable minds. As we admire this nostalgic scene frozen in time, it reminds us of simpler days filled with outdoor adventures and genuine connections between neighbors. This photograph serves as a beautiful tribute to both Jack Makepeace's dedication to his craft and the joy that golf brought into the lives of these spirited children from Westerhope all those years ago.
