Rain put damper on attendance
ALTHOUGH the attendance at Saturday’s annual Grindleton Sports Day was badly af fected by the poor weather, most of the events went off without any problems and some £400 was raised for the village recreation ground charity. One of the highlights of
the afternoon was a pre sentation to Mr • Tony Cann, a former secretary who was very active in the formation of the charity. Chairman Mr John
Kenyon handed over a painting of the playing fields, the work of spare time artist Mr Tony . Har greaves, who lives in Grindleton. As well as a variety of

rent rebates. The number of applications has recent ly increased so this should help some of the’ current tenants who are in diffi culty,” he said. Mr Jackson told the
committee he felt'1 family problems were making it difficult for some of these people to meet their com mitments. He said taking court
