and y J 112/ Water workshops show you care
A SERIES of public workshops run jointly by WWF - the global environment network - and the Environment Agency have shown how much local people care about improving the water environment in the Ribble Val ley.
Workshops in Clitheroe, Pre
ston, Burnley and Wigan were held to find out what local peo ple thought of the River Ribble and its environment and how they would like it improved. Their views will help produce a vision for improvements throughout the Ribble Valley. The workshops were attended
by a broad cross section of soci ety but the conclusions were unanimous. Local people and organisations felt that the vision for the Ribble Valley must include improvements in the quality and quantity of the water and habitats in local rivers
including the Hodder, Calder, Douglas and Darwen. A vision document will now be produced which will help guide and imple- nient the new European legisla tion on managing rivers, the Water Framework Directive, th a t applies to all UK rivers, including the Ribble. Rob Oates, Natural Rivers
Programme Co-ordinator for WWF, said: “This is a great boost for nature conservation in the Ribble Valley, a united call for a better environment means th a t as the new legislation is brought in wildlife and the natu ral landscape should always be highly valued.”
The participants also agreed
that public access to the water ways for recreation was very important as well as urban and rural regeneration through part nership working. One example of the partnership approach is the
wa,y the Mersey Basin Cam paign base lent its support to the workshops by sharing their expertise and experience of pub lic involvement. Dr Peter Fox from the Envi
ronment Agency had this to say: “We consider a good long term vision defined by local people as the foundation for good plan ning. Working in partnership with local communities as well as business and industry we will be much better placed to ensure that the outcome is of benefit to everyone including nature.” WWF’s involvement in this
process has been supported by the HSBC Investing in Nature partnership. Alan Byers, HSBC Bank Area Director said: "The workshops that have taken place in the Ribble Valley have shown how important it is to involve local communities in decisions that directly affect them.”

A nostalgic trip leads to court
by Court Reporter
A WADDINGTON man who took a n o s ta lg ic t r ip down memory lane was arrested after assaulting a man who had an affair with his wife seven years earlier. Blackburn magistrates heard
tha t the affair had ended Ian David Brown’s marriage and he had not seen his children since. And his attack
on.Phillip Chad
wick had come when he was in a highly-charged state emotionally. Brown (38), of Brook Villas,
Waddington, pleaded guilty to assault. The case was adjourned until
May 17th for the preparation of pre-sentence reports after the mag istrates were told he had two previ ous convictions for assault and three for harassment. Mr Eddie Harrison (prosecut ing) said the incident took place at
Mr Chadwick’s home in Ennerdale Close. After the two men exchanged
words Brown pushed the other against a car. Mr Harrison said the incident
had been captured on closed circuit TV which Mr Chadwick had installed because of previous prob lems he had with Brown. Mr Michael Singleton (defend
ing) said the history of the incident went back to 1996 when Mr Chad wick had an affair with Brown’s wEe. “That led to the break-up of my
cUent’s marriage and as a result of that he has not seen his children for seven years,” said Mr Singleton. He said February 2nd - the date
of the incident - was also the bhth- day of Brown’s 10-year-old son. “My client engaged in some nos
talgia and went round to where he used to live with his wEe and chil dren,” said Mr Singleton. “He was reflecting on what
might have been and in the height ened state of emotion he saw Mr Chadwick, the very man who had brought about everything that had happened.” Mr Singleton said that after an
exchange of words. Brown pushed the other man. He said that in his statement Mr Chadwick described the contact as a punch, but after viewing the CCTV footage the prosecution accepted it was a push. He said Mr Chadwick had described bruising and swelling as a result of the incident. “The defence say that descrip
tion is no more than a fabrication,” said Mr Singleton. He said Brown conceded there
had been a number of incidents between himseE and Mr Chadwick around the time of the affair, but none of them had resulted in crim inal proceedings. ‘They had not seen each other
for seven years prior to this inci dent,” said Mr Singleton.

Cjitheroe Advertiser & Times, April 29th, 2004 7. Rwandan visitor
drops in to school THE necessity of Christian Aid support was recognised by youngsters at Chatburn Primary School when a special Rwandan visitor dropped in to see them. Speaker Mr Buzizi Claver, explained to the chil
dren about the genocide of 1994 and how it killed nearly a million people in three months, leaving a vast number of orphans and widows. He emphasised that Christian Aid helped dis
tribute money for hoes, seeds, goats and cattle, for the widows to become seE-sufficient on land which the Rwandan government gave them. A Christian Aid partner himseE, 46-year-old Mr
Claver lost his parents, brothers and sisters in the war. During his week’s stay in Lancashire, he stopped
with the Rev. Ben Humphries and also took the opportunity of staging an assembly at Edisford Primary School in Clitheroe. The children and staff at the school appreciated
him enormously. Pictured are youngsters from Chatbum school with their special guest, (s)
