Changing shelter to have memorial bench in recognition of former Ramsey commissioner 

Stephen Kelly oversaw the project for three years before he passed away last month

A new changing shelter on Ramsey's Queen's Promenade will have a memorial to commemorate the work carried out by a former commissioner.
