Public response to activity


weekend superb


ORGANISERS of Clitheroe Castle Museum’s activi­ ty weekend are delighted with the public’s reaction to the event. Assistant curator Mr Alistair Bowden was responsible for the two days of assorted projects, which ranged from gold


panning to fossil hunts, at Salthill. He said: “The response from visitors was superb and so was attendance. We did twice as well as last year and more than twice as well as on a normal weekend.” Mr Bowden said that unfortunately it was not possible


to mount activity weekends more than once a year because of the number of expert volunteers involved, but it would certainly become an annual event. He hoped th a t a number of people who had come to the museum for the first time would return. He said: "Last weekend was obviously special but this is


a lively museum with a real range of attractions and I am sure people who were so enthusiastic about the activ­ ities will enjoy what we normally have to offer.” Our picture shows some enthusiastic young visitors get-

Barbecue time for Wednesday


Club ladies BARBECUES are ideal for summer entertaining. Although there have not


been many idyllic summer evenings so far this year, members of the Wednes­ day Club were fortunate for their meeting held out- of-doors a t Harrop Fold Country Farmhouse Hotel, Bolton- by-Bowland. Chef Jona than Davies


made a return visit to the hotel, following his recent move to the Waddington Arms, to provide a sump­ tuous barbecue for 22 members and friends. After first showing how to skin and fillet a whole salmon, he dressed it with oranges and herbs before baking it in foil on the hot coals. He also gave lots of advice and tips on garnishes and sal­ ads for those hot summer days, and the proof of this was in the splendid array of salads to accompany the fish, marinaded chicken and steak. To conclude the meal, he


barbecued a banana and chocolate dessert, a f te r which, as the evening had turned chilly, everyone retired indoors for coffee. The event was organised


by Mrs Thelma Clark, who thanked Mr Davies for an excellent meal and wished the owners, Peter and Vic­ toria Wood, a happy forth­ coming retirement. The next meeting will be a


theatre trip in September, organised by Mrs Jane t Hulme.

Living to a ripe old age does bring its problems


An advertising feature by Max Gardner


CA R IN G for th e elderly is some thing which is b eg in n in g to have im p l ic a t io n s for m o re an d more people.


Most people have some form of insurance for when


they retire. But this insur­ ance is generally thought to be a fund for use when one is still healthy—for a time when it is possible to relax and take life easy. We tend to push to the


back of our heads the time when we are frail or infirm and unable to take care of ourselves. But people are living longer and this means that older relatives, and sooner or later our­ selves, will need some sort of care. Population trends in the


United Kingdom, as in many other countries, point to a marked increase in the number of elderly people living well into their 80s and beyond. I t is pre­ dicted th a t in ju s t four years’ time there will be 17% more people aged between 75 and 84, where­ as the number of those who are over 80 will increase by another 50%. The requirements of the


elderly come in many forms. People simply become frailer when they get older, b ut many can


also become infirm, both physically and mentally. They can live in their own homes with help, live in a residential home, a nurs­ ing home, or even in hospi­ tal. The aim of those looking


after the old is to extend to them a dignified quality of life, by offering them care, respect and kindness, together with as much independence as is human­ ly possible. Here in the Ribble Valley we have already, as a com­ munity, begun preparing to care for the extra num­ ber of elderly people who will need help in their old age. We are fortunate in th a t we have a wealth of nursing and residential care homes, where experi­ enced and well-trained staff are on hand to care for the needs of those who have chosen this option. Agencies, which provide


24-hour care to people who choose to remain in their own homes, also abound in


the area. They provide ser­ vices which include meals,
