councils. Speaking at a meeting <>f


the Rihlile Valley Council, Coun. Jones pointed out that there are currently 54 Conservatives, l'l Libera! Democrats and no Labour representatives on outside

New device will help fire safety


THE deaf and hard of hearing in the Ribble Val­ ley can now make emer­ gency calls to the fire bri­ gade — thanks to a revolutionary telephone


device. The device, known as


Minicom,” is available


with a freephone 0800 number, which has been issued to users throughout the county by the Lanca­ shire Fire Service. When a call is received


in the brigade’s control room, at Fulwood, a pre­ programmed message is used to speed up the transmission to the caller. The message reads:


“ Fire Service; what is your telephone number and the address of the


fire?” A printer attached to


the receiving device gives control staff a print-out of


the response. Chief fire officer Gordon

Russel said: “The Lanca shire Fire Brigade sees


this as a first step towards helping the deaf and hard of hearing in our commu­ nity and it is hoped to extend the facility in the future, with a second 0800 line linked to Minicom, for general advice on fire safety."
