Today’s the day when millions of people, including hundreds of celebrities from stage, screen and radio, take part in this fund-raising extravaganza. For many members of the Great British Public it is the culmination of months of hard work, often performing ingenious and bizarre feats; to selflessly raise money for this very worthy cause. Now in its 13th year the appeal goes from strength to strength, and continues to raise staggering sums of money to help disadvantaged children and young people throughout the United Kingdom.
The list and variety of fund raising activities is endless. In 1991 an estimated 35 to 40 thousand separate events took place across the UK raising a total of £20,819,508 all of which was carefully distributed by the Children In Need Trust. The Trust awarded more than 5,500 grants acting on the
recommendations of nine regional advisory committees.
The money has been distributed to a wide variety of projects including organisations helping to combat child abuse, counselling for families affected by AIDS/HIV and conductive education for children with cerebral palsy. AdministrationTias been paid for out of interest earned on donations.
1
One of the largest grants - for £260,870 spread over three years - went to Friends For The Young Deaf, the national charity which is actively managed by deaf people. They will use the money to run an exciting and innovative programme of recreational and educational activities throughout the UK which aims to bring hearing and hard of hearing children together.
As well as benefiting children by awarding grants to well-known children's charities, BBC Children In Need is able to reach others through many little-known, though equally valuable groups who find it difficult to attract much needed funds. One of the smallest grants - for £100 - went to the Inkeberrow Village Bowling Club, near Worcester, to buy a set of bowling woods for a teenager with muscular dystrophy.
Nowhere is the spirit of Children in Need seen than in children themselves. Courageous children striving to overcome their own disabilities to help
others. A shining example is 12 year old Paul Crummy who was born with a congenital abnormality affecting his lower limbs. This became so painful that the only solution was to have both feet amputated. Paul made the decision himself and he was operated on in February 1991, Far from restricting him, Paul's life had dramatically improved. He is a keen Sportsman and this year was named Webb Ivory Young Fund-raiser of the Year for Northern Ireland, after raising nearly 33,(X)0 through a Sponsored Walk for the Musgrave Park Hospital, Belfast.
Everyone's enthusiasm and dedication is appreciated. So whether you're apple-bobbing, having your head shaved, yodelling or doing a lambada marathon, we at the Burnley express applaud all Your efforts ana hope that you have a fun filled day helping "Pudsey" to help disabled and
(cT
disadvantaged youngsters.

Ready for fair The streets of Ribches
ter have been deserted for the last few days, but those who did venture out were treated to the deli cious smells of Christmas cakes cooking and the music of clicking knitting needles. Obviously it is St Wilfrid’s Christmas fair this weekend.
Artistic talents “A rip-roaring success”
is how Mrs Joyce Walms- ley described Ribchester Art Club’s first exhibition, held last.weekend in St Peter and St Paul’s Parish Centre, Ribchester. Three works by 90-
year-old Mrs Ada Hay- burst, of Water Street, were among the 150 paint ings on show and the steady flow of visitors was impressed by the presen tation, variety and quality of the local artists’ works. Many paintings were
sold — one destined for Brisbane, Australia — and it is hoped to make this an annual event. Although Joyce and Boll
Marr, two of the organ isers, were on hand to welcome new talent, new members were reticent to come forward and join, perhaps owing to the mis conception that, unlike one 19th-century
