Dawlish and Teignmouth Club has been thriving for 36 years and has a history of community involvement. An exhibition to celebrate members’ work was held in January, at a community arts centre in Teignmouth. The week-long event, which included prints and a slideshow, attracted nearly 600 visitors and over 300 of them voted for their favourite image. Club Chairman Alison Crowter said, “This was a really successful exhibition and a chance for the club to share its work with the wider community.” There were two joint winners for the most popular image, both confirming the public’s love of man’s best friend.
