12 photos memories from around Beeston in 1999

These photo memories celebrate a year in the life of Beeston at the end of the 1990s.

They rewind to 1999 and showcase bags and bags of community spirit in a suburb celebrating the present as well as looking to the future. Pupils at a primary school in LS11 came together to launch a playground scheme aimed at stop all squabbles between students.
