DISABLED Guides and leaders will now be able to use Waddow Hall thanks to an electronical­ ly-operated chair which whisks them up the stairs to the first floor.


First “passenger” was


Wendy Hollin, of the 2nd Whalley Guides (pictured) and there to send her on the way was former Clitheroe Mayoress Mrs Doris Ainsworth.


The idea for the chair


came from former Guider- in-Charge Miss Moira Walker, during the Year of the Disabled in 1981.


Since then many local


organisations have raised cash and Guide companies visiting the national train­ ing centre have also made donations.

Home from teaching in


the Sudan BACK from the Blue Nile ■. . . th a t ’ s Clitheroe graduate Mark Dewhurst, who has just spent nine months teaching English to children in the Sudan. Mark (24), carried out


several driving and cleri­ cal jobs in London after s tu d y in g E n g lish at London University. But he jumped at the


chance of teaching abroad and soon found himself in a girls’ secondary school in A1 Jazirah, in central Sudan.


Mark, whose parents


Roy and Betty Dewhurst live at Wilkinsons Farm, Twiston, explained that th e b e s t S u d an e se teachers soon leave their country to teach in richer countries such as Saudi Arabia or the Yemen.


This results in many


English graduates being employed to supplement the Sudanese education system. “ It was a very interesting experience and one I would recommend," says Mark.


Now Mark is heading


for London to follow a year’s teacher-training course, before, hopefully, starting a teaching career in this country.


h f j No singing


COM M U N IT Y hymn singing which was plan­ ned to have taken place at the Castle Bandstand, on Sunday, has been cancel­ led to avoid a clash with the heritage fair. The United Christian


Fellowship, which has members from all denomi­ nations . in the Ribble Valley, had expected fair events to be over by 3 p.m. But this will not be the


case and the Fellowship now hopes to organise another event in the near future.
