CLITHEROE residents ignored rival charitable demands and poor weather and gave as generously to the annual Poppy Day appeal as
ever.. The honorary organiser Mr Bob Scott said he was confident that the total collected will reach £3,000, a figure which is comparable to that raised in
previous years. The appeal relies on many volunteers for its success and our photograph
shows Mr Scott presenting one of them with the Poppy Appeal’s Certificate of Appreciation. Mrs Marilyn Harris, of Corbridgc Court, has sold poppies for 14 years, five more than Mr Scott himself who has organised the Clithcroc appeal for the last time.

Mr Ronnan expressed the hope that, in the future, it might be possible to incorporate the neighbouring private club, with facili ties of cricket, tennis and bowls, if the necessary legal documentation could be sorted out.
