A KINb-SIZE cake ar rived at Clitheroe Hospi tal to brighten up the day for more than 50 elderly patients.
The generous gesture
came from a local super market manager, who had the cake baked and iced for a dual purpose.
It was first used in a
guess-the-weight competi tion at the Castle Field on S a tu rd a y , when the Ribble Valley Disabled Action Group held a sports-for-fun day. Hilla rd’s Clithe ro e
branch manager, Mr Allan Morton, who helped to or ganise the sports, said:
“The cake, we felt, would be too big for the winner, so we arranged another prize. Meanwhile, we de cided the hospital would be its ideal destination." There was plenty to go
round as the 24'Alb. iced fruit cake was sliced up at teatime on Tuesday. It was made by Mother's
Pride, who had decorated the top with lettering and a picture of the castle to mark the town’s 800 celebrations. At the presentation
were Mr Morton; Mr John Fearnley, Mother's Pride district manager; and hos pital administrator Mrs Genevieve Maddock.
