FR IE N D S of Slaidburn Country Practice have been striding out in the name of fund-raising to raise money to help heart a ttack v ic t im s through the Heart of Lan­ cashire Appeal. The group completed a spon­


sored walk, the proceeds of which will go towards purchas­ ing three portable defibrillators for use in the villages of Slaid­ burn, Dunsop Bridge and Bolton-by-Bowland. Each machine costs around


£2,000 and a group of volunteers from each village will be trained


to use them. The person on duty in each parish will also carry a
