Walkers conquer Hadrian’s Wall for local good causes
by Duncan Smith
STRIDING the length of Hadrian’s Wall was the charity challenge conquered by Clitheroe Round Table. Two teams of Tablets set out simultaneously
from opposite ends of the wall, meeting in the middle three days later. They hope to raise up to £1,000 for two local good causes, Lite Education and Crossroads, the caring for carers charity. The trek was organised by immediate past chairman Brian Alston, who has been involved
with the two charities throughout his 10 years with Clitheroe Round Table. Lite Education is a mobile classroom that tours
local schools teaching children how to make healthy choices in their lives. Some of the sub jects discussed are smoking, alcohol and drug awareness, which allows the children concerned to make informed choices and hopefully avoid some of the pitfalls encountered by previous gen erations. Crossroads supports and helps carers of handi
capped people in the area by taking over their duties for anything from a couple of hours to a

The hospice invited her to visit with her dog to work with the children staying there. She recounted many moving stories of how her dogs helped children to bring some to sick ness, suffering and distress and helping to stimulate them.
