The proceeds were therefore sent to the International Aid Trust, based in Long- ton, which is current­ ly co-ordinating aid for the Rotary. The money wiU be used to sponsor the transport to Pakistan of a 40- foot container full of aid from other organi­ sations.


Also, £550 is being sent from the fund's coffers to sponsor a teacher in a handicapped school in Sri Lanka. Sister Jacentha Silva has established a school for handi­ capped children in Koralawella, Mor- watuwa, where she works on her own to give them an educa­ tion. She began with only a few children, and now teaches more than 60.

■^ABDEN


Thank you Sabden man Mr Colin Cooke has been thanked by the chair-


■ man of Lancashire County Council, Coun. Bob Wilkin­ son, for his work in promoting tourism in the Forest of Bow- land. Mr Cooke was invited to County Hall in Preston to a special reception held to thank those who have made a sig­ nificant contribution


to the conservation and management of the area, in addition to celebrating the award of the Euro­ pean Charter for sus­ tainable tourism in protected areas in the Forest of Rowland area of outstanding natural beauty. Mr Cooke's accolade is largely for his work in producing The Sab­ den Way, a nine-mile circular walk around the Sabden valley which has drawn hundreds of tourists , to the area.


Council The November meet­ ing of Sabden Parish Council was chaired by Coun. Antony Haworth and attend­ ed by Couns M. Proc­ ter, J. Haythornth- waite, M. Sefton, K. Barrington, B. Parfitt, A. Watson and J. Shorter. Bor­ ough Coun.,Michael Fielding sent his apologies and Coun. Tony Finn was co­ opted on to the coun­ cil. Under matters aris­ ing it was reported that the overhanging trees at Bull Bridge are on private land and permission is needed from the own­ ers before branches can be lopped. The ash tree saplings on Simonstone Road will be looked at with a view to carrying out some work. Ribble Valley Council is to carry out work on the trees at Chestnut Green. It was report­ ed that the dog war­ den’s presence is being felt in the Stub- bins Lane area where there was a particular problem. With regard to recycling, the offi­ cer responsible at Ribble Valley Coun­ cil, Mr Peter McGe- orge, is to be invited to a public meeting to explain the situation regarding future changes.


Planning An application for a first floor rear bed­ room extension and front porch at 109 Padiham Road had been refused by Rib­ ble Valley Council and the mobile phone 12m. transformer monopole and associ­ ated equipment in a fence enclosure at Top Row Farm buildings had been withdrawn.


Donations Requests for donations from the North-West Air Ambulance and Victim Support were turned down as it is not the council's poli­ cy to donate to out­ side organisations. A letter was received from residents regarding their con­ cerns about Sabden Service Station. The contents were noted as the situation has not changed. The chairman reported on new training initia­ tives and the impor­ tance of training for

Midnight candlelit Mass and a Christ­ mas morning Mass at 10-30 a.m. Boxing Day Mass will be at 10-30 a.m.


Church Sabden Baptist Church invites every­ one to join in its Christmas celebra­ tions which begin with a carol service on Sunday at 2-30 p.m. to be followed by refreshments. On Christmas morning there will be a service at 10 a.m. This Sun­ day the usual morn­ ing service is at 10 a.m. The church wishes everyone a happy Christmas and New Year.


Entertaining acts of fun


SINGERS, rap artists and ballet dancers were just a few of the entertaining acts from a Ribble Valley school that helped raise more than £200 for Children in Need.


The talent show organised by pupils from Waddington and West Bradford Primary School consisted of 20 acts with chil­ dren from every class participat­ ing. Even five-year-old pupils from the reception class per­ formed solo songs in front of the entire school and parents.


Other musical acts enjoyed by the audience were pupils singing


councillors. On the issue of Sabden achieving Quality Parish Council sta­ tus, on the proposal of Coun. Parfitt and seconded by Coun. Shorter, all were in favour of leaving this in abeyance until after the 2007 elec­ tions.


Playground The adjoining pub fence is still in disre­ pair. The roundabout will be removed and scraped. Coun. Short­ er commented on the amount of offensive graffiti in the youth shelter. The youth service is to be con­ tacted about the issue of marker pens to youths to write their own graffiti in the shelter.


Matters A member of the pub­ lic asked about the frequency of road sweeping and gutter cleaning around the village. A letter was to be sent to Ribble Valley Borough Council thanking it for its prompt action in cleaning Pendle Hill after Hallowe’­ en. The dog litter bin on the Holme foot­ path has come off the post and there is still concern about tree roots damaging the path. It was reported that locked gates are blocking access to 1


•to 13 Whalley Road. It was pointed out that while residents can have gates they


accompanied by guitars and piano recitals. Meanwhile, one of the most popular acts was pupil Peter Macalpine’s demon­ stration on his pogo stick!


The event, which was organised by the school council consisting of eight children aged 10 and 11, raised a total of £216. They pro­ vided everything from the posters promoting the event to baking buns and cakes to sell.


Picture shows Year Six pupils Tom Purdy and George Green collecting tickets to the event on the door, (s)


must not restrict access. The county council is still trying to sort out land own­ ership at the bottom of Wesley Street. A vehicle is reportedly blocking the back of Thorn Street. The chairman reported that he had arranged for the football boots that had been slung over the electric cables on the Lower Holme to be removed. No progress had been made on the war memorial project to date. The country­ side officer is helping to access a grant for a path to make access easier for the disabled along River Walk to Jubilee Bridge and then along the brook side of the Lower Holme field.


PapGr Next Tuesday is the day for collection of waste paper, which should be placed in the white sacks pro­ vided and left outside in the morning.


Quiz The FSA at St Mary’s RC School is selling sheets for its annual Cryptic Christmas Quiz, this year involving celebrities, cities and football teams. Sheets cost £1 and are available from school and par­ ents, St Mary’s Church or Mr John Shorter at 14 Whins Avenue, to whom they must be returned by January


11th. The winner will receive £15.


MGmoriGS Villagers who went into Sabden Primary School last week to help the youngsters with their studies by recalling their memo­ ries of the Second World War, have been warmly thanked. Teacher Mrs Janet Rudd who arranged the morning when the elderly residents spent a morning at school and enjoyed tea and biscuits with the pupils, said: "The children have written to them, but I would like to say thank you as well."


Quiz night Last Friday’s Christ­ mas quiz night proved a big attrac­ tion and raised £267 for St Nicholas's Church Funds. It was organised by Eric and Ann Sparks who thank everyone who helped and attended.


St Mary’s The recent Christmas Fair at St Mary's Church raised a total of £1,800 and Fr Peter Birmingham thanks everyone who helped and supported the event. If anyone has any red mission­ ary collection boxes at home can they please return them this week so the money can be sent off before Christmas. The Christmas Mass­ es are at 6 p.m. on Christmas Eve, a


SGrvicG The usual morning service at 9-30 a.m. at Sabden Methodist Church on Sunday will be a carol service led by the Rev. Laura Hardy. On Christmas Day the congregation will join the Baptist Church in Christmas morning worship.


Part^f Last week’s Tea Dance Christmas party was attended by around 50 people who enjoyed a really fes­ tive time. The danc­ ing was led as usual by Mrs Margaret Haythornthwaite before a buffet tea and entertainment by a vocalist. The tea dances are held regu­ larly in St Mary's Hall on Wednesday afternoons. The next will be on January nth.


Carols The annual indoor Carol Service for the whole village takes place on Tuesday in St Mary’s Church at 7-30 p.m.


Stamps Please save the stamps from your Christmas cards as they can be used to help a very worthwhile, but little


known, charity. Mrs Eileen Pearson, of 4 Alston Close, collects used British and for­ eign stamps for the charity "Occupy Till


I Come" which helps needy people both at home and abroad.
