funding was obtained and locally money was raised through a disco, flea market stall, barbecue, individual donations, a birthday bash in a bam for two of the trustees, and finally the raffle and the Autumn Affair Dinner Dance last November. The target of over £65,000

Plan to be refused?


NOISE nuisance would be caused by multi-goal equipment at Langho Playing Fields, says a council report. Tonight’s meeting of the Rib-


tal Health department express concern at noise readings from a similar wall at Billington. They indicate that at Langho


been sent in supporting the plan - and a 34 signature one plus 11 letters opposing it. The equipment, off Bushbum


ble Valley Borough Council Planning and Development Committee is recommended to refuse a planning application for the equipment and for resurfac­ ing the playground at the fields. A 51-signature petition has


Road, would consist of a steel and mesh sports wall with three panels, up to 10ft high and 25ft wide. The council’s Environmen­


there would be potential for noise nuisance. Even if people closed their windows the noise would still be in the “unaccept­ able” range. Objectors also criticised the


size of the structure, claiming it would be “somewhat over whelming for this enclosed area of land.” But officials believe that the size itself would not jus­ tify refusal, especially as the structure would be a mesh. But noise nuisance would


affect nearby houses and so refusal is recommended.


THE first ever “let’s get together” lunch held by Whalley’s pastoral care team was a great success. The team is one of the


parish church’s initiatives to reach into, and serve, the Whalley community. Some 53 people are cur­


rently on its care list. They range from hospital patients to people whose only need is a cheerful visitor from time to time. Many of those who are on the list and can get out and about were at the party, transport being provided. Nearly all knew at least


some of the others and some old acquaintances were renewed. Scheme co-ordina­ tor Mrs Sandra Mitchell organised the lunch, with the help of colleagues Sheila Fountain, Shirley Pilking- ton, Catherine Duckworth, Dorothy Borland and Ann


Avery. Some members of the team are also in the Whalley Singers, who entertained after the lunch. Our picture shows Mrs


Mitchell with some of the guests, team members and helpers and singers. (G040903/4)
