Three empty houses are set to be re-used
THREE houses, which have stood empty in Clitheroe for several years despite a desperate shortage of affordable housing in the area, are to be brought back into use. An ex-council house on Whitewell
Drive is to be converted into a group house for people with learning disabili ties in conjunction with Lancashire County Council Social Services. A second ex-council house on Siddows
Avenue, is to be brought back into use on a general let basis with Ribble Valley Borough Council able to nominate ten ants from its waiting list. The third house, on Hayhurst Street, will be sold on a shared ownership basis, which aims to help people who cannot afford to buy a suitable home outright in any other way. All three houses were bought by the
housing association Space New Living Ltd several years ago, but have stood empty due to the association being unable to attract the necessary funding from the Housing Corporation to reno vate the properties. Ribble Valley Borough Council’s hous
ing manager Mrs Christine Grimshaw explained that after the last of a long list
of bids by Space to the Housing Corpo ration was refused earlier this year, the council had stepped in to end the stale mate. It has agreed to provide Space with financial assistance through its ren ovation grant budget and empty proper ty budget. Mrs Grimshaw explained this action
would guarantee the properties remained in the social housing sector and not placed on the open market. “This way, the houses will remain
available to people who live locally,” Mrs Grimshaw commented. Both the Hayhurst Street and Sid
dows Avenue properties should be brought back into use this year. No timescale has been given for the Whitewell Drive property, but an appli cation to build a two-storey extension on this house has been submitted to Ribble Valley Borough Council’s planning department. The news that the houses will be brought back into use has been wel
comed. Chairman of Ribble Valley Borough
Council housing committee, Coun. Joyce Holgate said: “I am very pleased this ^ happened. The more that we can bring
back into use the better. Houses should riot be left unoccupied.” Ribble Valley Borough Coun. John McGowan, who has been lobbying the council’s housing committee about the matter, said: “Although it has taken a long time, I am happy something is now being done.” • Meanwhile, a local resident on Sid
dows Avenue asked that careful consid eration be given to the property’s future tenants, who, the resident hoped, would be a suitable addition to the quiet neigh bourhood. It is estimated that there are 700
empty properties in the borough, many of them second homes for people living abroad. One of Ribble Valley Borough Coun
cil’s key priorities in its Housing Strate gy 2004 - 2008 is to find out why these homes are empty and look at ways of bringing them back into use. In order to do this the council has
appointed an Empty Property Officer and developed an Empty Property Strategy. It is also in the process of developing a database of empty proper ties by December and bringing eight properties back into use through the Empty Property initiative this year.

AN amazing £740 has been raised for an organisation to carry on helping local people who suffer heart attacks. The money was collected by Sabden
Primary School’s Parents, Teachers and Friends’ Association, who held a charity disco night at Whalley Golf Club, with raffle prizes including slap-up meals and champagne at the White Hart Inn and the Pendle Witch pubs in the village. A cheque was handed over to the
Heart of Lancashire Appeal (Sabden First Responders), who provide a fast
response and first hne treatment to peo ple in the community who have heart
attacks. The on-call volunteers are called by
the ambulance service if somebody suf fers a heart attack, and will attend to the person with defibrillation equip ment straight away while waiting for the ambulance to arrive. A defibrillator, which uses an electri
cal current to get the heart back to a normal rhythm, can greatly increase the chance of a patient’s survival, but
more volunteer responders in Sabden are needed for the First Responders. If you are interested just contact Mrs
Susan Cropper on 771946 or field train er Mr James Masterman on 775268. Our picture shows Sabden Primary
School presenting a cheque to the Heart of Lancashire Appeal and First Respon ders for £740. Pictured are Mary Grif fiths, Enid Boyd- Martin, Susan Crop per, Sandra Dundon, Mandy Galling and Fiona Proctor. (A250604/3)
Young farmers look forward to some fun
AFTER a summer break, members of Clitheroe Young Farmers’ Club are looking forward to a packed programme which will include a treasure hunt round Sabden, organised by Eric Langdale and Roger Vickery, a camping weekend at Hawkshead, where there will be an age restriction of 16-plus, and a harvest
“do” which will take place in Pendleton Village Hall on September 10th. Mem bers and friends are welcome to all events. During the summer break Clitheroe member Richard Whitwell has been stockjudging in the Junior Stock- man of the Year for the Northern area at Bishop Burton. He was a member of
the winning Lancashire team and indi vidually came second in the dairy cattle section and third in fat lambs. Also a number of members have been involved in the county stockjudging when John Walmsley was placed first for fat lambs, and went on to judge at the Northern area and was placed third.
