vifww.clitheroetoday.co.uk Quartet starts off new musical year
THERE was a very pleasant start to the Clitheroe Concerts Society’s musical year with a performance by the Martinu String Quartet. The society was pleased to have
invited the quartet back after hear ing them perform three years ago. Formed in Prague in 1978, the
group gave a delightful concert with works by Martinu, Beethoven and Borodin. After the interval clarinet-
tist Angus Meryon joined the con cert to perform the Franz Krommer Clarinet Quintet in B flat major Op. 92.
Pianist Johnathan Ellis and
soprano Charlotte Stephenson will be performing at the society’s next concert which takes place on Wednesday. I t will offer the first opportunity to hear the newly refurbished piano in action.
Prepaid membership enables the
organisers to engage the best musi cians for the concerts, but the con certs are open to all members of the public. Tickets can be purchased through
the tourist office and Clitheroe Music in Moor Lane, as well as being available on the door on the night of the performance if seats are available.

Garnerin made the first parachute jump from a balloon. Parachutes had been imag ined and sketched by Leonardo Da Vinci in the 15th Century and other inventors later
designed them, including Croatian Fausi Vrancic who constructed one based on D: Vinci’s drawing and jumped from a tower ir Venice in 1617. During three special craft sessions chil

Villages go high-tech
by Duncan Smith
VIRTUALLY all of Lancashire is now switched on to the benefits of broadband after BT converted three Ribble Valley village telephone
exchanges to the new technology. Only Dunsop Bridge - ironically at the
heart of the kingdom - remains in the “telephony dark ages”, but BT has prom ised its village exchange will be broad- band-enabled by February next year. The landmark comes ju s t under 12
months since the launch of the Lan cashire Digital Development Agenej^’s £4m. push to bring 21st Century com munications to businesses throughout the county. Lead envoy Jane Law welcomed news
that BT was close to opening up the last remaining exchange in Lancashire to
broadband. “Many companies, particu larly in remote rural areas, have been held back because they could not take advantage of broadband communica tions,” she said. “We now have a date when all of Lan
cashire’s exchanges will be connected and we are already working on ways to ensure more businesses have access to faster commercial broadband speeds.” The LDDA was set up with funding
from the North-West Development Agency (NWDA) and the European Regional Development Fund. I t is sup ported by Business Link Lancashire and the East Lancashire Chamber of Com merce. Its two-year Lancashire Broadband
Action Plan aims to boost the number of companies taking advantage of the latest technology to give them a competitive edge.

Pillow and parasol time
PILLOWS and a parasol were among special purchases pre sented to Clitheroe Hospital by the WRVS. The items were paid for with
profits from the WRVS trolley which is taken round the Valley hospital twice a week by volun teers selling sweets and toiletries to patients. And Marilyn Mercer, who
organises the WRVS hospital trolley, decided that some of the profit should be donated back to the hospital.
Special pillows for the wards, a
parasol for use in the rehabilita tion day unit, craft items for use by those undertaking occupa tional therapy and a sling to help ease the transfer of patients from baths and chairs, were among the items purchased with the money. Our picture shows hospital
staff with WRVS volunteers and Jacqueline Threlfall, the hospi ta l ’s matron manager, a t the presentation.
