I think the man holding the "Vase" is Jimmy Turner with Eric Leigh on his right and Ted Turner on his left with Irene Nichols next to Ted. Horace Mawdsley is next to the end on the back row There may be a clue as to the camp connection, Jimmy Turner later became the resident camp "Ted Bovis" at the Middleton Towers Holiday camp at Morecambe

The man next to Jimmy Turner is Ted Traynor(not Turner)he was a leader in St Catherine's Youth Club.
