TIME is running out for people in Redcar who want their memories of the area to be included in a new book about the town.

Publishers Penhaligon Page are compiling a series of books about different localities early next year and are asking anyone in the Redcar area wanting to take part to send opinions, myths, poems, anecdotes, factual accounts and photographs for possible inclusion.

The series' editor Suzy Walton said: "We intend to produce a full and fascinating picture of Redcar and are looking for material that will bring out all aspects of the area - historical or modern day."

Submissions should be sent to Redcar in Words and Pictures, Penhaligon Page, Remus House, Coltsfoot Drive, Woodston, Peterborough, PE2 9JX by next Tuesday.
