Concerns are raised over children ‘swimming in raw sewage claim


. , IT-'--- ■ ---------- --------- _ j °


CHILDREN may be putting themselves in danger by .swimming where raw untreated sewage is discharged into


a Clitheroe stream. That is the fear of a local


resident who has com­ plained that the children


ignore his warnings. Now-the Environment


Agency is to investigate the complaint from Mr Stephen Lee, of Henthorn


Road, Clitheroe. Mr Lee said: "When


there has been heavy rain­ fall, raw, untreated sewage is discharged from the s ew ag e w o rk s o n H e n th om Road, into the stream which flows directly, in a


Lottery boost for playscheme


A BIG lottery grant has taken the weight off the shoulders of Clitheroe


parents who work on Sat­


urdays.The £27,000 from the Lottery's New Opportuni­ ties Fund means that the holiday playscheme which has been running at the Roefield Leisure Centre for, six years will expand into Saturdays from early Sep­


tember. And the number ot ,


places available on week­ days will be increased to 30 five to seven-year-olds and 30 eight to 13-year-olds.


A spokesman for the


scheme said they had car­ ried out a survey which suggested there was a need because a lot of parents were working on Saturdays. The Saturday Club will


occupy the children with a mixture of arts and crafts


and sport. m .e*
