enrolling in September for Ribble Valley classes was 2,154, against 1,440 in Rossendale and 1,796 in Hyndburn. “The Ribble Valley pro

A PROPOSAL to turn Clitheroe’s pitch and putt course into a caravan and camping site has been a t t a c k e d by lo c a l councillors. Council officers had sug
gested closing the Edis- ford course and using the land to extend the adja cent caravan site. “If the pitch and putt
course is closed, then it should be converted into

Five more local groups benefit from TV venture
THE remaining half of the money raised from Waddington’s TV experiment earlier in the y e a r has now been allocated to local organisations. The money came from
sponsorship of the Village Channel TV station and from donations. A special committee was

are five local groups, with some money kept aside for community help. The village’s playing
fields committee receives £600, £200 goes to Wad- dington Playgroup, £100 goes to Waddington Hand bell Ringers, £75 is for library books at Wadding ton and West Bradford CE School, and £50 goes to St Helen’s Mothers’ Union. A sum of £75 has been
