M O T O R C Y C L E racer Alistair Haw­ orth (pictured) has finished runner-up in two North-West tit­ les in only his second


competitive year. Mr Haworth (32),


who lives in Sabden, rode his Yamaha XZR 400 to second place in the Preston and District Motorcycle Club's 400 championship and the open 500 championship, run over six rounds at the one kilometre circuit - said to be the twistiest circuit in Britain - at


Wigan. The storage and


process engineer, who works at Leyland, began riding motorcycles at the age of seven. "Motorcycles have been a massive part of


my life,” said Mr Haworth, who was in the Army until two years ago and was unable to take up the sport to any great extent


t CAlUii-i Motorcycle racing is


an expensive business. "Everything I have


got goes into it, that's why I was grateful this year for some much- needed sponsorship from Frank Windsor at Brookside Garage, Sab­ den, and from Andelle Motor Leathers, of Hor- wich. Their help made


the burden easier," he


said. He also received spon­


sorship from panel repair specialists Tritech, of


Lostock - but, fortunate­ ly, his machine did not need their services. His ambitions for next


season are to win the two championships in which he was runner-up this


____ year. ~

Undergraduate Julia gains vital experience in the business world


A TRAINING sch­ eme aimed at future managers has helped


a local student. The Shell Technology Enterprise Programme


2001 (STEP) allows undergraduates about to


enter their final year to undertake projects tai­ lored to their degrees and career ambitions. The programme is


administered locally by the Pendle Enterprise Trust and supported by Business Link and the Pendle Partnership. It is also an opportu­


nity for businesses to benefit from what STEP describes as the fresh ideas, technical expertise and high-calibre project work of the students


1 fund


involved. ..&j


The scheme has helped former CRGS


head girl Miss Julia Ramsbottom gain valu­ able career-based experi­ ence. She is currently studying for a degree in Management and Org­ anisations at Lancaster


University. Miss Ramsbottom


undertook an eight-week placement with Mor­ timers Chartered Sur­ veyors to investigate


several aspects of the firm's operation. These included the


impact of the compa­ ny's recent rebranding, consistency of image and service between branches, assessing channels of communica­ tion within the firm and staff understanding of


the business's direction. On completion of the


project, she submitted a | report to the Pendle Enterprise Trust and ^ was presented with a STEP certificate, which should be of value to her in job applications. Mr Ron Morrish,


director of the Pendle Enterprise Trust, said: "She was intelligent and creative, and came up with good results." _ . Students and busi-1 nesses interested in par­


ticipating in the STEP programme should con­ tact the Pendle Enter­ prise Trust at Pendle Business Centre, Trafal- gar Court, Commercial Road, Nelson, BB9 9BT or telephone 01282

TEACHERS discov­ ered the real-life application of math­ ematics in industry during a pilot indus­ try placement sch­


eme. Clitheroe science com­


pany Synetix, part of the I Cl group, is playing a


key role in helping to launch the scheme, host­


ing five teachers from four Ribble Valley


schools. The project is one ot


the first to run in East Lancashire and aims to provide teachers with practical experience of the application of math­ ematics in industry in order to enhance their own delivery of the National Curriculum Numeracy Strategy at


key stages 2, 3 and 4. The four Clitheroe


schools involved in the visits are Bowland High School and Brookside Primary School, who vis­ ited last week, and Rib- blesdale High School Technology College and St James CE Primary School, whose teachers are due to visit the plant


tomorrow.


Last week's visit began with a tour of the


.


Clitheroe site, where the visitors were given an insight into the impor­ tance of catalysts, the ingredients used to speed up chemical processes. The teachers were shown how catalaysts are pro­ duced and why they are vital to sustain modern


life. The scheme has been


organised in partnership 7*7" VO • J T' * r aenaK ! h ^


with the East Lan­ cashire Education Busi­ ness Partnership, a proactive member of Lancashire Education


Business Links Organi­ sation Consortium, and is being funded by ICI. Mrs Kay Renton,


senior development offi­ cer for the partnership, said the scheme would give teachers the chance


to obtain invaluable experience of the use of maths in industry and through the first hand knowledge gained from their visits, they would be able to bring real life examples of maths work­ ing in an industrial envi­ ronment to the class­ rooms. "As a teaching aid, it will be vital," she said, adding that it was


hoped it would encour­ age pupils to seriously consider maths and chemistry as a career


option. Pictured are teachers


from Bowland High School and Brookside Primary School with Mr David Greatorex, left, education liaison repre­ sentative at Synetix. (J111001/2)

MORE and more people throughout the Ribble Val- ley are currently giving up


their time to help others. The Volunteering Development


Project and some of the organisa­ tions helped said their own thank you during a presentation at the borough council chamber. Volunteers received certificates


from Oxfam, the Grand Cinema, Ribble Valley Citizens' Advice Bureau, Skillshare, St Paul's Playgroup and Ribble Valley Community Gardening Project. Anyone wishing to become a


volunteer can contact the project at 1 Swan Mews, off Castle Street, Clitheroe, tel. 01200 422721, or look for the monthly


st pp arin


list, of vacancies appearing on page 2 of


liant natural history pic­ tures in the folio, as well as spectacular sporting action and a fresh look at many local landmarks. One computer montage, entitled: "Young Girls’ Dreams" especially caught the eye. It was a picture of two young­ sters with fairy sized ver­ sions of themselves dressed as prima balleri­ nas on points on their
