help a society which runs children’s homes — S t D e n y s ’ in Clitheroe among them — and serves as a fos tering and adoption

will be attempting his first sponsored walk, said both men would have to complete the course to raise the money, as they were being jointly spon- sored.
staff. The gardening depart
ment fills an important role in providing a con tinual flow of flowers and shrubs for the gardens at the 11 hospitals in the Blackburn, Hyndburn and Ribble Valley Health Dis
trict. A regular demand for
indoor floral decorations
has also to be met. Several thousand plants
in a seemingly endless variety were seen at diffe rent stages of growth. The importance of pro
viding the right conditions was emphasised by Mr Glossop, who also ans wered questions relating
to specific plants. The surprising thing
was that automation en
abled the vast amount of work to be performed by an average of three
people. Mr Glossop accepted an
invitation to make a return visit to the club to talk about pot plants.

to the Yorkshire Dales National Park will be operating from Clitheroe station on the first Satur day of each month bet ween May and October.. But one of the organis
ers, Graham Nuttall, says: “Unless vigorous op position is made to oppose the BR plans, the 1983 Dalesrail service could be the last ever. Closure of this ‘magnetic’ toui-ist attraction would be one of the largest acts of folly carried out by any Gov-'
eminent.” The Dalesrail services,
which have been using Clitheroe station since 1978, give travellers the chance to visit places such as Kirkby Stephen, Ap pleby, Lazonby, Horton and Garsdale. Those who prefer can travel to Car lisle for the day. In addition to the
trains, there are the usual connecting buses to places l ik e S ed b u rgh and
Leyburn. There w ill also be
guided walks by a number of leaders, including Mrs Pat Parrott, of Clitheroe. The Blackpool service
from Clitheroe will only run on June 4th and Sep tember 3rd this year. Tickets for all services
can be obtained at the Clitheroe Travel Agency in Castle Street.

JUST occasionally in the th ea tr e come those rare occasions when, at the end of the ev ening , one wants to climb on
one’s seat and cheer. Such a night occurred
in Waddington when the drama group performed Alan Ayckbourn’s “Table Manners” in their cosy little theatre with its splendid assets, a good stage, good acoustics and
