MONTHS of coaching at pri mary schools across the Valley was well rewarded at the area’s
first Tag Rugby Tournament. Community sports coaches from
Ribble Valley Borough Council, working closely with Clitheroe Rugby Club, visited schools to coach children in the basics of the game. A seven-a-side non-contact ver
sion, designed specially for younger children, was taught at the schools. Instead of tackling, which can cause injuries, they snatch a tag tucked into their opponent’s belt - hence “tag rugby”. The youngsters took to the fast-
moving game quickly and eight mixed teams representing seven Rib ble Valley schools took part in the inaugural tournament. Organised jointly by the council
and the rugby club, it was held a t the club’s ground at Littlemoor Road, Clitheroe. Schools taking p a r t were St
Michael and St John’s RC Primary, Clitheroe; Brennands Endowed, Slaidburn; Salesbury CE Primary; Read CE Primary; Simonstone CE

Private Hearing Aids at Burnley General
After the overwhelming success of last years event, a local Hearing Aid Practice, is again holding two special open days in May, at Burnley General Hospital, to promote the wide range of Digital Hearing Instruments that are now available Privately. The Hearing Centre on Hammerton Street, is a family run company, that has been established in Burnley for nearly 30 years. As an independent private
practice, they supply Digital Hearing Instruments from every major manufacturer and offer truly impartial advice. A hearing loss can lead to strain, embarrassment, and isolation, yet a good Hearing Aid can make all the difference. Many of the latest Hearing Instruments fit completely inside the ear, with some so small, they are virtually invisible when in use. Gone are the days of
strimmers worth £1,000. Since the Bank Holiday weekend incident, Clitheroe police have been appealing for witnesses to come forward. Please call the police on 01200 443344, or the
free-and-confidential Crimestoppers line on 0800 555111 with information.
wearers having to fiddle with buttons and switches, as the hearing aids automatically self adjust for volume and background noise. Continued research and development, has also driven the cost of Private Hearing Aids down considerably, and now Digital Instruments are available to suit every budget. The Hearing Centre offers a 60-day free trial, on every Private Aid supplied. The Special open days are held in conjunction with the Audiology Department, Burnley General Hospital, Casterton Avenue, on the 19th and 20th May. Admission is free.
