A RECYCLING centre that will have a double benefit for the peo­ ple of Whalley has been opened. • The launch ceremony was per­ formed by the:Mayor of the Rib­ ble Valley, Coun. Joyce Holgate,. with an empty Champagne bottle rath er than a full one. I t took


| place at the site of the recycling I facility, next to the Rendezvous nightclub. The new centre was proposed


by the owner of the nightclub, Mr Steven Crompton. He approached Ribble.Valley-Borough Council with the idea of developing the facility for the use of the whole community from his own system for the disposal of trade waste from his business. - As a result a recycling unit for


bottles and cans is now in opera-: tion and is available for everyone to use.


A bonus for the Ribble Valley • ■


communities is that the recyclable materials will now be taken away free of charge and Mr Crompton will be saving money on waste dis­


posal bags. This saving, which Mr Cromp­


ton says will be about £500 this year,.will be donated to the Mayor's charities.


Mr Crompton said that he first ■


thought of the idea about four years ago, but a number of diffi­ culties prevented its implementa­


tion. After he found he could install


a contractor's collection bin behind a wall close to the night­


club, he had apertures cut in the wall and suitable signs installed.; Mr Peter McGeorge, of Ribble


Valley Borough ' Council, explained that the facility would enable people to improve their environment through recycling. He said: "Mr Crompton's app­ roach was most welcome and the council is pleased to be involved in partnership in this scheme.


"The people of-Whalley now 1


have a good recycling facility and the council gives full credit to him and his concern for the communi­ ty in which he has a business." . Our picture shows the Mayor


and Mr Crompton heading the queue to use the new recycling centre at Whalley.

R ESIDENT S in the Ribble Valley have been warned not to approach a p a t ien t who has absconded from a secure psychiatric unit and could be


dangerous. . Albert Oszmianski (39) went


missing from accommodation at Kemple View, Langho, on Fri­


day. Police said th a t he does not


have his medication and without it could become aggressive and


should not be approached. . Originating from the Midlands,


Mr Oszmianski (right) also has connections in Morecambe, and police inquiries have been concen­ trated on those areas. Police are now tre a tin g Mr


Oszmianski as a wanted person. He was made the subject of a hos­ pital order and sent to Kemple View in June, following a convic­ tion for wounding with intent.


Kemple View is situated off the


A59 and provides rehabilitation for 64 adults with severe mental health illnesses in four separate units. I t is privately run by Part­


nership in Care Ltd. - Mr Oszmianski is the third patient to go missing from the
