COUN. Brian Braithwaite does a disservice to the people of Pendleton in de­ scribing them as old fo g ie s , b e cau se they oppose changing the school , into a diocesan youth centre. At the age of 34 I do not consider myself as. such. When looking at this


matter did the Planning Committee consider how they would like this youth centre next door to them? There are a lot of very

well-meaning people who either do not live near the proposed site (or not even in the village) who think this an excellent idea, but probably they never had to put up with noise from anywhere. It is not that we do not


want young people in the village as we have 20 or so of our' own around the village some nights. It is the large numbers of dif­ ferent groups — about


250 we were told at the meeting last year — coming for three or four days at a time, possibly two groups a week and about 24 persons a time. I do not expect these


young people will be any different than our own children or than we were, but I remember my youth in Whalley and the aggra­ vation we caused the local residents by hanging about. We were not a bad lot, but I can now under­ stand their feelings. I do not think it was


what we were doing that frightened people but what we might do (which is the same in Pendleton now). A crowd is capable of anything if the mood takes it, especially where drink is involved. I know that the Rev.


Cole says that alcohol is to be banned. Just the fact that something is banned makes it far more

of working with young people I have seen again and again the value of a r e s id en t ia l weekend centre in helping teena­ gers' (and adults) to dis­ cover themselves and grow in Christian experi­ ence and commitment. • Some of the centres in


Cheshire and Stafford­ shire we have used are similar in setting to that proposed at Pendleton. Our young people at Trin­ ity have also used village residential centres both at Borwick and in the Lake


District. In each case these


facilities bring healthy young life into a village community, provide a little local employment and, where there is one, boost the trade of a vil­


lage shop. I hope the people of


Pendleton will support use of the building for the kind of informal Christian education, which, I be­ lieve, is right in line with the original purposes for which it was erected.

JAMES tempting for some young


people. There are lots of things


the school could be used for during the day — a private nursery or junior . school, an or.phanage


whose children _ we could get to know. Some people say that


this youth centre will en­ courage young families to come to the village. Speaking for . this young family I think it is more likely to do the opposite especially as we now do not have a school. . I know that it is felt that we should at least


. give this youth centre a try, and I am prepared to do so. But I do not think a lot of money should be spent on altering the school until the trial period, of say 12 months, is over. The school itself is not


much bigger than the av­ erage house, so why


couldn’t one of the sup­ porters o f the youth centre be the guinea pig and he genial host to these groups-in their own home during the trial period?


Some groups will be as


good as gold, especially the first hand-picked ones, but do remember that young people tend to be more daring away from home. Generally young people brought up in a town do not tend to ap­ preciate quiet Villages such as Pendleton and


• will, no doubt, be bored. In my opinion the best


place for this youth centre would be somewhere where they can make all the noise they like, Or does anyone know where Coun. Braithwaite lives?

Not too late to consult on schools


I AM grateful to Mr Clarie Gerrard, the Clitheioe Constituency Labour Party Agent, for pointing out that the school review situation is as a result ot centiai government directions going back over some years.


•The problem of a falling sultation the circular says


birth-rate and its effect on schools is one that rightly demands attention and action.


However, I am sure


that Mr Gerrard will be familiar with the Circular 2/81 from the Department of Education and Science, dated June 16th, 1981, “Falling Rolls and Surplus Places.” This sets out var­ ious guidelines for local authorities in tackling the problems..

less than 100 pupils the circular says (paragraph 10): “Many will be small rural schools whose future needs to be. considered in the light of the effect of closure on the length and nature of the journey chil­ dren would have to make, to alternative schools. Au­ thorities will often find, therefore, that they have to make most of their sav­ ings in larger schools,” and “authorities may wish to consider closure of some m e d ium -s iz e d schools in closely built-up areas as an alternative to closure of a number of small schools.”


In paragraph 24 The

For 1st Pendle Scout Group Funds


AT Clitheroe Naturalists’ Society meeting, members were given a talk about the Highlands of Scotland by Mr N. Duefden, of Hurst Green.1 He showed many fine


slides of the scenery at different times of year, as well as many concentrat­ ing on the various kinds of rocks and birds. Mrs F. Blades gave a


vote of thanks.


(paragraph 25): “The Sec retary of State hopes that governors of voluntary aided schools and non maintained special schools will co-operate fully with local authorites in carry­ ing out a review' of the total educational provi­ sion;”- and (paragraph 27): “ In making that review local authorities should consult diocesan au­ thorities, other voluntary bodies and teacher inter­


ests locally.” The education authority


has had nearly two years to consult diocesan au­ thorities, governors, etc. But even now it is not too late for the Education Committee to begin seri­ ous consultation (not pressurised by any timet­ able they may have). In addition to these fac­


tors already mentioned, the circular also refers to amalgamations, tempor­ ary accommodation and closing parts of schools. There are other factors,


too, such as the far-reach­ ing social effects in village communities (a village school once closed will probably never re-open), and the much less serious social effects in a town (where one school of sev­ eral, if closed, has less direct effect on the on going social life of the town).

will run sports centre


WE write to provide a few facts for readers ab out the p r o p o s e d Roefield Barn Recreation aiid Leisure Centre.


The facilities for the use


of the general public would include provision for badminton, indoor tennis, five-a-side football, cricket net practice and a mountaineers’ climbing


wall, to namea few. Provision would also be


available for sport for the physically and mentally handicapped, as well as the community use men­ tioned in.our letter of last


week. Over Wyre Sp orts


Centre has been self-sup­ porting for some years and it is our intention to run the Roefield Centre on the same principle. It


is not proposed to run the centre entirely by volun­ tary help, but to employ at least part-time labour.


While feeling the need


to answer PRO ?ONO and Coun. Jr Carr’s critic­ isms in last week’s paper, we feel that the people of the surrounding area are illustrating their interest by both organising and at­ tending the fund-raising events already taking place'.


Any organisation con­


sidering raising funds for the appeal should contact Mrs D. E u in ton ,


(Clitheroe 41823).

Hospice appeal


Donations still welcome


THE East Lancashire


Hospice (still to’ be given an appropriate name) is now under construction and it is hoped that by this time next year it will be in operation.


Our appeal has now <


achieved the initial target of £40,000 and the ther­ mometer in the Market Place, having fulfilled its p u rp o s e ,


is to be


removed. However, the appeal


will continue for some months' at least, for the original estimate of the cost of the Hospice has increased since the appeal was launched 18 months ago. This is because of an


extension of the services originally planned, includ­ ing a greater emphasis on day-care and domiciliary attendance in addition to


the 10-bed residential ac­ commodation originally


envisaged. In urgent cases, night


accommodation will be av­ ailable in the Hospice for dependent relatives, and provision for the spiritual needs of the patients will be an important ’ feature so. that our Hospice will be regarded as a house of rest for the ‘ traveller, a haven of caring and com­


passion. In thanking most sin­


cerely the spontaneous generosity of the general p u b l ic , in d iv id u a ls , societies and organisa­ tions, we hope for their continued support until our task is accomplished.


S. WESTHEAD, Chairman, Ribble Valley Hospice Appeal.
