C L ITH E R O E high street traders and other business people have entered a period of recession and financial constraint without parallel for a decade, says M r Chris Wood, president of the local Chamber
of Trade. In his annual report, he
takes stock of the past 12 months and highlights the h a rd t im e s now fa c in g many of his members. He says: “We are unique
as a Chambe r of Trade; our membership is a mix of re ta i le rs , manufactur ers, service companies and professional practitioners. This affords a wide view on the business scene and confirms ou r b elief th a t the la s t y e a r has proved increasingly difficult.
"The effects of the swin
geing increases of the uni form busine ss ra te have been compounded by the l e v e l s o f c o m m u n i ty charge and high in te re s t r a te s . T he la s t two not only hit our pockets, but re d u c e d th e d isp o s a b le income of the public, thus red u c in g pos s ib le re ta i l spending.” Mr Wood also spells out
again the Chamber’s con cern over proposals for the old a u c t io n m a r t s i te ,
em p h a s i s in g t h a t th e C h am b e r ’s p o l ic y h a s always been for a “small” number of specialist retail units. “The published propos
als suggest 19 retail out le ts and we co n tin u e to lobby th a t this is ju s t too many in th e c o n te x t of Clitheroe,” he added. But in his report, pre
sented a t the 07th annual m e e t in g y e s te rd a y , Mr Wood points out th a t the year has not been without its highspots, notably the ex p e r im en ta l C hr istm a s sho p p in g sp e c ia l, which included Sunday opening for the first time. “This was a success and
convinced us th a t we had the mechanisms to a t tra c t tile retail public to Clith eroe,” he says. “We shall be running o th e r promo t io n d a y s on s e le c te d Saturdays during the com ing y e a r .” O th e r hig h lig h ts have

Katherine Hargreaves rose to the challenge with gusto. Flexing her creative muscles, Mrs Hargreaves created a magnificent boar s head
fruit cake, which took a full 10 days to ice. Mrs Hargreaves’ son, Je remy, who lives in Seaford, Sussex, commissioned the - i n
cake for a medieval dinner and raffle organised by Lewes Round Table. Star ting h e r hobby five years ago, Mrs Hargreaves, of Duck Stre et, lias not
looked back since and enjoys making cakes for family occasions such as weddings and birthdays.

MORE than 30 Lancashire Mayors and Mayoresses visited the Ribble Valley for a “breath of fresh air” on No Smoking Day las t Wednesday. Their annual tour of the
villages and countryside of the borough as guests of the Ribble Valley Mayor and M ayore s s coincided with the “let’s packet in”
day. And th ey did th e i r bit
towards the campaign by observing a ban imposed by their hosts. Ribblo Val ley to u r ism o f f ic e r Mr Keith Taylor said the visi to r s w e re a sk ed n o t to smoke as the coach did its tour — and springtime in the Ribble Valley proved a re a l to n ic fo r th e civic dignitaries!

S a l th i l l Roatl, h a s ju s returned from the Glassex Exhibition a t the National Exhibition Centre, where it took a 2,000 sq. ft. stand and erected what could be the la rg e s t conservatory displayed in the NEC — some 11 metres by eight. The company’s unique
conservatory roofing sys tem s h a v e b e e n w e l l received by window and c o n s e rv a to ry companies th ro u g h o u t th e UK and E ire . Due to th e o rd e rs and the cu r rent high level of business, another five people are to be employed over the next month. During th e re c en t by
