Linda is top of her class


FOLLOWING her father’s footsteps into the police force is former Clitheroe Girls’ Grammar School pupil Linda Logan.


S g t Tom L og an ', is stationed in the town, has got away to a head start in her career by gaining top marks at the police train­ ing centre at Bruche, near Warrington. At the end of a 10 week course Linda (19) finished

Winter of content! is aim of group’s register scheme


A CLITHEROE welfare worker wants to make


it a friendlier winter for housebound folk. Mrs Valerie McDonald,


secretary of Clitheroe Old People’s Welfare Visiting Committee, thinks it


: would be ideal to have all their names in one handy register. She says that already


some 70 people in the Clitheroe area receive a regular visit. “ But I’m sure there


must be lots more house­ bound folk who do not see a regular visitor. I want to try to produce a register in which I could add names to the ones that are already visited,” she said. Mrs McDonald feels a


register would be an easy check on numbers o f housebound folk and would


ensure that no-one misses out on-a visit, especially as nights turn colder and darker. Visiting in the area is


done by a wide variety of clubs and organisations. Mrs McDonald, however, stresses that she does not wish to disrupt any pre­ sent arrangements. “ There’s an excellent


network of visiting in the Clitheroe area, but T just would not like anyone to miss out,” she said. Mrs McDonald is secret­


ary of about a dozen volun­ teers who work locally and are not connected with any national appeal such as “Help the Aged.” Any local groups which


think they could help com­ pile a register, or. anyone who knows a housebound person who does not receive a visit, can contact Mrs McDonald at her home, 9 Conway Avenue, Clitheroe (Tel. 22112) or at Clitheroe Royal Grammar School (Tel. 23118) where she teaches. A spokesman for the


Ribble Valley’s Social Ser­ vices. Department said he was pleased with the regis­ ter idea and was sure that full-time social workers in Clitheroe would give the plan full support and encouragement. “The work facing our


social workers is well beyond the department’s resources and the help of local groups and societies is vital,” he said.
