EVERY week a band of volunteers ensures that the Clitheroe Advertiser and Times reaches the blind on tape. Their efforts and commit­


ment are appreciated by scores of people for whom the arrival of the weekly taped issue is one of the week’s highlights. Next week, the 1,000th


edition of the Ribble Valley Talking Newspaper will be produced and, to celebrate the special issue, volunteers organised a listeners’ tea in West Bradford Village Hall on Saturday and are


appealing for anyone who has been involved in the talking newspaper over the years to join in the celebra­ tions as the 1,000th issue is produced ori Thursday. Saturday’s tea was attend­ ed by 85 listeners and their friends. Prepared and served by the committee, the tea was a resounding success. A special cake to mark the event was made by the organisation’s trea­ surer, Mrs Iris Gregson, and was cut by Mrs Whit­ tle, one of ‘ those who receives the talking news­ paper each week.

the expenses are charged on the individual parish or community, but with the exception that the borough council bears the cost of all uncontested elections. The cost of holding a parish council election


depends on a number of factors, which include the size of the electorate, how many polling stations are involved, whether poll


cards are issued and whether or not i t is com­ bined with a borough coun­ cil election. Depending on these factors, the cost of a parish election can vary between £300 and £600. If members of the com­


mittee wish to a lter the current policy, details will be put forward to the bor­ ough council’s Policy and Finance Committee.
