Working overtime - as clean-up volunteers Name switch as _ — animal feed firm


I plans investment


ANIMAL feed compounders A. Dugdale and Son Ltd, of Clitheroe, has announced a £0.75m. investment package and a change of name. The package is the sec­


ond phase of structural and management changes aim-ed at increasing rumi­ nant feed manufacture to more than 100,000 tonnes by 2003. However, there are no


immediate plans to increase the 40-strong workforce. The aim, says the company, is to secure the firm's long­ term future - and to demon­ strate its support for local farmers. The company's trading


operation will in future be known as Dugdale Nutri­ tion, which is thought to reflect the changing service and products demanded in the current market place. Mr David Byers, who


OVERTIME with a difference kept these employees of Clitheroe's Ultraframe


works busy. For they volunteered to


do a spot of spring clean­ ing, bagging rubbish from the banks of Mearley Brook, which runs by the company site in Taylor Street. They then moved on to


derelict land at Bridge Street, where they collected 25 sacks of debris in a shift co-ordinated by Kibble Val­ ley Initiative, a Salmes- bury-based environmental projects team. (050600/1/5)


Brookside pupils win a


netball title PUPILS at a Ribble Valley primary school have netted a sporting


league title. The team from Brook-


side Primary School, Bright Street, Clitheroe, has won this year’s Ribble Valley Large Schools' Net-


ball League. This year's competition


went right down to the last game, as the Brookside


team and the players repre­ senting Pendle Primary School,


from Princess


Avenue, Clitheroe, had each won all their games and were drawn to play each other in the last game of the season. At the end of the championship decider, the Brookside team finished on top, winning the game with a score of 15 to 6. There are 18 girls in the


netball squad at Brookside Primary, a number play with the Ribble Valley net- ball club and three of them are training with the Lan­ cashire junior squads. The squad members


often initiate their own lunchtime training sessions,


with the older players coaching the younger ones and, during the winter months, the squad trains at Clitheroe Royal Grammar


School.

DAYS


MEMBERS, supporters and clients of Ribble Valley Crossroads Care kicked off National Car­


ers' Week with cups of coffee all round. The registered charity, which supports family carers


and which has been established in the town for around 13 years, held the event in the Ribble Valley Mayor's Par­ lour. It began a week of high-profile awareness for all the people in the area who look after relatives at home on a


voluntary basis. Our picture shows some of the chanty s workers and


supporters enjoying a cuppa outside the Mayor's Parlour. (C030600/4/1)


Invitation goes out to have fun at school and support pupils


AN invitation to have fun and help encourage children in their early education years is being extended to Ribble Valley residents by St Michael and St John's RC Primary School. From 1 p.m. on Saturday,


the Friends of St Michael and St John's School, in Lowergate, Clitheroe, are holding a fun day on the school field. As' well as browsing


round the various stalls, vis­ itors to the venue will also be able to take part in the entertaining activities which have been planned for people of all ages. Every penny raised at Saturday's event will be used to benefit pupils who attend the


school. Support for the fund-rais­


er has come from a number of local organisations work­ ing cheek by jowl with members of the organising committee to ensure the weekend event is a day to remember. Mr Michael Rigg, from


the friends, said: "Parent teacher associations throughout the country work hard to raise money to help support their children's education and Clitheroe is no exception. Our children are the hope for a brighter future and a better world. It is our help and support for these people that will change the course of this new Millennium and create an environment of tolerance and understanding."

disease is to be held in the Ribble Valley. I t will take place between 4 p.m. and 5-30 p.m. on June

Museum asks council to help


meet extension cash shortfall Decision on £21,000 plea is delayed for more details


TIME could be of the essence in deciding whether Ribble Valley Borough Council should help in making up a shortfall of £21,754 to extend Ribchester's


Roman museum. Councillors present at the Commu­


nity Committee meeting were told of the village's aim to secure matched funding for a Heritage Lottery pro-


ject. The project, costing £367,536, will


see the museum extended to provide an even greater tourist attraction for


the area. The trustees of the Ribchester


Museum Trust have already pur­ chased the adjoining garage and intend to use this additional space to update and extend the display. Matched funding so far includes £143,768 from the Heritage Lottery Fund, £5,000 from the North West


Museums Service, £147,014 from the European Development I'und, £25,000 from the Lancashire Envi­ ronmental Fund and £25,000 from the Ribchester Museum Trust. The museum had requested grant


assistance for the project, but the bor­ ough council said it currently had no budget identified to support some­ thing of that level. However, Coun. John Hill (Simon-


stone) made the observation that there could be a time factor involved. "I am concerned that if we delay too long the other sources of matched funding could fall through," he said. Curator of the museum Mr Patrick


Tostevin said the museum put in a bid for assistance in January this year. He said a decision had already been deferred once and added that the trustees were going to have to start work on the development soon so they would not lose the matched funding


already promised. "Hopefully the work will be completed within a year,


he said. Councillors at the meeting support­


ed the application in principle, exclaiming that the museum was a great tourist draw, but voted to go back to the trustees to get more exact details of how much they were asking in grant assistance. "The borough council does want to


help, but because it is so early on in the current financial year we do not know yet if there is going to be any budget available. It could well be later in the year before we know what we have available,” explained Mr Chris Hughes, the council's leisure and


tourism manager. Mr Hughes was to write to the


trustees to see if they had explored other sources and would be likely to bring his findings back to the next committee meeting.


was appointed managing director two years ago, is to continue at the helm of the business. He says the second phase of changes "will ensure the company's con­ tinued presence in the mar­ ket as a robust and finan­


cially secure force". Personnel


changes include the promotion of


Mr Howard Blackburn to commercial manager, tak­ ing control of marketing strategy and customer ser­


vices. Mr lan Brown, who


joined the company a year ago from Dalgety, will head up the sales operation and will be directly responsible for overall farm sales and the company's team of ruminant specialists.


Camera and zoom lens is stolen


A CANON camera with a zoom lens has been stolen from a vehicle in Mellor. The piece of equipment,


which is valued at £800, was taken between 12-30 a.m. and 11-45 a.m. on Sun­ day from a BMW saloon, which was parked in the car park at the Millstone Hotel, in Church Lane.
