Apluncheon for club :
V J A Vale House
A L U N C H E O N club' is being set up for Iresidents of Vale Houjse, a sheltered housing scheme in Whalley. The complex only has
a sipall communal kitdhen, so £ 10,000 is being spent on extending it and buying catering equipment of the neces- sary:'scale to provide up to 40'lunches. The scheme reflects
the policy of both the Ribble "Valley Borough Council and the local primary health care trust to give people such as those in sheltered housing as many oppor tunities for meeting together and being as ind^endent as possible. So^he council and the
health group are sharing the'rapital expenditure. The'council will pay the running costs of the once|a-week lunches, but hop^s the charge made ■wilTrecoup them. is impossible to
prejlict how much income is likely to be generated prior to com mencement of the lun cheon club, but there is the potential for break ing even," says a report to the council Policy and Finance Committee. A'- luncheon club has
been running at a similar couhcil complex in Lon- grid^e for 14 years. It Is not'yet known when the Whalley one will start.
