A COMMEMORATIVE bench lias been bought in honour of the former area officer in charge of the so­ cial services team in the Kibble Valley, who died at Christmas. Mr Henry Fearon (53)


was based at Clitheroe from 1973, supervising the


social work operation throughout the borough. Born in Cumbria, Mr


Fearon worked for British Steel and on the docks,


before taking up a career in social work. He was a children's social worker in Lancaster and a senior socir! worker in Danven,


prior to coming to the Kib­ ble Valley. The money for th e


b en ch came from a memorial fund which raised £-150 throughout Lancashire County Coun­ c i l’s Social S e rv ic e s Department. The bench was p re ­


sented at a ceremony held at Castleford Home for the Elderly, in Clitheroe where it will remain. Our picture shows divi­


sional director of social services Mr Brian Ley- bourne (right) and Mrs Fearon on the bench, with former colleagues.
