Sidmouth beach sees more cliff falls during busy Easter weekend

Sidmouth Lifeboat crewman Guy Russell said cliff falls occurred three or four times over the weekend and issued a reminder about the dangers of being close to the cliffs.

“I cannot stress enough the dangers of going to East Beach, where people walk down and sit with their books or play with their kids. When you go to the beach, in the sea or by the cliffs, take a minute to look and think about is it safe? Where you are going to sit? If you are not sure ask a lifeguard, the lifeboat team or us we are happy to give advice.”
