Jane is now a black belt!


A MARTIAL arts expert from the Ribble Valley is celebrating after achieving her black belt in taekwondo. Jane Hindle (25), of Simon-


stone, has been training in the Korean art for the past five years and has now reached first dan status. A member of Burnley Taek­


wondo Club, Jane (pictured) is considered to be an inspiration, having triumphed in the sport despite being profoundly deaf. Her mother, who wants to


thank the club for the support given to her Jane, praised her daughter’s motivation, which


she believes is a credit to the deaf community.


She said: “Jane is very keen


and very disciplined. The sport is beneficial to her in many ways, especially the self- defence side.” (T160105/4)

by Duncan Smith


DOG wardens in the Ribble Valley have adopted a zero tolerance cam­ paign against residents who allow their pets to foul in public. They have issued on-the-spot fines to


five Clitheroe dog owners and have warned: “Watch out, because we mean business.” Ribble Valley Borough Council


launched a zero tolerance campaign against dog fouling last year after Willows Park Lane. Loneridge. was dubbed the

BUDDING footballers at Whalley Pri­ mary School were able to show off their fancy footwork just like their favourite soccer idols, thanks to a professional coaching session. Former Clarets player Ashley Hoskin


spent an hour at the school to give some professional football tips to a big group of Year 3 pupils. Over the next few weeks, Ashley will be


visiting the school on a regular basis and coaching various age groups. Commenting on the sessions, head­


teacher Mr Brian Beresford said: “Foot­ ball is a very popular sport and children have been extremely excited about them. “In fact, one parent said his child was so


excited th a t he was up at the crack of dawn cleaning his football boots! “The sessions enable children to work


with Ashley, who has a high standard of football knowledge and possesses profes­ sional coaching qualifications.” Ashley (centre) is pictured with the


football-mad pupils. (B020205/4)

dirtiest footpath in Lancashire. Dog war­ den Adele Scott has been out and about in the Ribble Valley catching the dog fouling culprits on mobile CCTV and this week started issuing £50 fines. She said: “The days of leaving dog mess


in public places are over. As well as the fines, I have also issued numerous warn­ ings. Ribble Valley Borough Council is committed to protecting the environment and tackling the problem of dog fouling in public.” There has been a 30% increase in com­


plaints about dog fouling in Ribble Valley streets. The Dogs (Fouling of Land) Act 1996


requires dog owners to pick up their pet's mess, with fines of £50 if they don't and up to £1,000 if a culprit is taken to court. The fines were issued in the Littlemoor


Road and Whalley Road areas of Clitheroe. Other dog fouling hotspots in Ribble Valley include: Chester Avenue, Faraday Avenue, Standen Road, Woone Lane, Taylor Street and Henthorn Road, Clitheroe; The Arches, Whalley; Mardale play area, Longridge; and the villages of Mellor and Wilpshire.
