with Ribble Vallej MP Nigel Evans. ‘
I HAVE just completed my 12th summer tour of the Ribble Valley. I have met many people and council lors during the fine days - and decid edly fewer people during the rainy season (otherwise known as the sum mer).
I was accompanied by two young
eager volunteers from Clitheroe Royal Grammar School - Catherine Sieezkowski and Tom Baines - and they were both excellent and enthu siastic.
I came across the usual problem of
the lack of school places - and this is something that the county council must properly address. The plain truth is that more peo
ple want to go to our excellent schools than there are places, and the prospect of any of our children being placed on buses early in the morning to travel miles out of our area to Accrington for their schooling is totally unacceptable. The tour took me to many vil
lages, which reinforced the special needs of our more remote communi ties, like Tosside, and the need to ensure that busing of youngsters into Clitheroe or further afield must remain free and I will oppose any prospects of charges coming in for
any child receiving free transport at the moment.
The Government is intending to
allow local authorities to introduce charges as part of an overhaul of school transport - but this will just be another hidden tax and extra bur den for rural dwellers. I will also continue to fight against
the closure o f Post Offices, the replacement of some that have closed like Ribchester, and the retention of
the network o f public telephone boxes. Anyone who lives in some of the
more outlying parts of the Ribble Valley will know that possessing a mobile phone does not negate the need for phone boxes -
if there is no
network coverage then your phone is useless—indeed in some areas you’ve got more chance of getting through on a banana than you have of getting through on Orange.
On Sunday I visited Bolton-by-
Bowland to witness for myself the aftermath of the recent flooding. It is soul destroying to see furni
ture and carpets put out to dry or disposal once the waters had fallen. The Environment Agency must
look at ways of ensuring that our rivers and waterways have sufficient
flow and drainage where necessary to combat this nightmare of a problem. I am now receiving many post
cards from constituents asking for protection for poorer countnes with their trade and Third World debt. It is absolutely right that we confront the poverty which dogs their daily existence and scars the conscience of the developed world. I do not see this issue as being party political and I will be looking to join especially with the newly-appointed Labour candi date, Coun. Stephen Wilkinson to press the (Sovemment to assure these developing countries that they will have fair treatment when it comes to access to our markets, and that we in the developed world will not “dump” our products, from Europe or the USA, on to their markets thereby destroying any chance of them being able to prosper or fend for themr selves. "These countries are already ravaged by pestilence and disease, including AIDS, and it is our duty to help them help themselves. ■ Finally, I would like to wish all my
constituents who have received their A-Level and GCSE results my con gratulations and heartiest best wish es for the future

New innovations inspire confidence
by Duncan Smith
CLITHEROE company Ultraframe is quietly confi dent of an upturn in its for tunes as a new managing director takes the helm next week. Vanda Murray succeeds Nick
Gale, who left the company earli er in the year. New products have been launched and are currently being developed in a bid to appeal to a previously largely untapped sector of the market. Chief among those products is
Ultraframe’s revolutionary “Litespace” conservatory. Launched at the Ideal Homes Exhibition and subsequently fea tured in a range of national news papers, magazines and other pub lications, it has generated thou sands of inquiries from prospec tive buyers. Developed by Ultraframe’s
technical director Chris Richard son, Litespace sits somewhere between a conservatory and a large floor-to-ceiling bay window. Costing around £3,000
installed, it appeals to a whole new sector of the market - people who want the light and airy feel of a sun room, but have not the space or the money for a tradi tional, full-size conservatory. New and industry-leading stan
dards in’the thermal properties of the glass used for Litespace mean it does not have to be closed off from the rest of the house to pre vent heat loss.
The result is a walk-in bay
extension, bringing extra space and flooding a room with light. Designed to replace patio doors, it is ideal for a wide range of smaller homes not suited to a traditional conservatory. Another product innovation
from Ultraframe is its “Uzone” conservatory system - a new interlocking roofing design that does away with traditional nut- and-bolt construction. In most cases it will halve installation time and reduce the cost of a new conservatory. Uzone utilises more contempo
rary designs to appeal to a younger market and feedback from customers has been very positive. Again, interest in the Uzone system has been high, with sales trebled since February and continuing to grow. Company chief executive Mr
David Moore told us: “We have a further new product launch planned for October for the bud get segment of the market and we are already extending our range of these products to make them accessible to the majority of UK housing stock.” Last week saw shares drop by
32% as the company advised investors, many who are local, that its annual profits would be lower than expected. Shares began the week at 75p. On Mon day it was a similar story, with shares at just 67p. Despite the forecast, the company is still set to announce annual profits of around £12m.

MEMBERS o f Clitheroe Probus Club were much impressed by the amount of research and detailed knowl edge displayed by fellow mem ber Cliff Astin when he gave his illustrated talk: "Folklore and Wild Flowers". Members were not only pre
sented with slides showing nature's works of art, but Cliff described how the flowers and herbs formed the pharmacy of yesteryear. In addition they had fulfilled
purposes currently performed by modern chemical com pounds - deodorants, preserva tives, packaging materials and insect repellents. He explored the different
names under which a plant might be known, varying according to the locality and
also down the years. Thus Speedwell has been known as "B illy Bright Eyes" , "Buds Eye", "Mothers Eyes Out", "Poor Man's Tea" , "Strike Fire", "Wish Me Well", as well as the botanical name Veronica chamaedrys. The speaker had filmed in
several European and Mediter ranean countries in order to assemble his superb collection
of slides. Member Jim Pilkington gave
the vote of thanks. The next meeting is at the
Pendle Club, Lowergate, at the early start time o f 10-45 a.m. on September 3rd, when mem ber Jim Parker will talk about "Musical Memories of Richard
Tauber". Inquiries to the secretary:
