Although it had been suggested that this meeting be organised by the parish council, it was decided that this would be more appropriate if done by the twinning committee, although councillors would attend and support the idea.

Clitheroe Advertiser & Times, February 24th, 2005 4S< Here’s where the speed traps will be


POLICE have released a list of Ribble Valley roads to be target­ ed by mobile patrols over the coming week to enforce speed limits. The sites are published weekly


by the Lancashire Road Safety Project in a bid to cut offences of speeding. These are sites where speeding


has been identified as a problem, but monitoring and enforcement could take place on any of the


borough’s public highways. The only way to be certain of


avoiding a fine and penalty points for speeding, says the pro­ ject, is to stay within the speed limit. The publicised sites are: • A59, Gisburn Road, Gis­


burn. • A59, Longsight Road,

WATCH


Family’s lucky escape as tanker overturns


by Faiza Afzaal


A DRIVER and his two children were lucky to escape serious injury when a 38-tonne tanker carrying animal blood overturned on a roundabout on the A59. The accident happened at 2-


15 p.m. last Wednesday at the busy roundabout at the junc­ tion of the A59 with the A671 Burnley Road and resulted in police sealing off the road for approximately four hours. Driver Mr William Byrom


(33), of Newton, Lancaster, sustained cuts and bruises and his 10-year-old son had cuts and a suspected fracture. Fire crews had to cut free


his seven-year-old daughter, whose arm was trapped in a “crumpled” part of the tanker’s cab. A crash team from Black­


burn Royal Infirmary, police and two fire crews, including specially-trained officers from Preston, were involved in the rescue operation, which took over an hour. The air ambulance was sent


to the scene from Blackpool at around 2-30 p.m., but as the casualties were not as serious­ ly injured as had been feared, it was sent back to its base at 3-40 p.m. The three casualties were


taken to Blackburn Royal Infirmary by ambulance. Fire chief for Clitheroe


retained station, Mr Dave McGrath described the rescue

operation as a very “danger­ ous and delicate” job. He said: “The little girl was


in a crumpled part of the pas­ senger side and her arm was trapped and was very difficult to relieve. “I praise the girl for her


bravery. Although she was in shock, she remained extreme­ ly calm throughout the whole incident. “Because it was very dark


inside the cab, we couldn’t determine what was going on and had to be extra careful for the girl’s safety. “After an hour, and after


using numerous equipment, we managed to release her arm


and she was subsequently taken to the hospital with her father and brother.” Mr McGrath has commend­


ed the efforts of all the emer­ gency teams involved. He added: “This was an extreme­ ly serions accident and could have resulted in serious conse­ quences. “Dealing with the crash was


a complete team effort and because of this, thankfully, we got the result we were looking for.” It is understood that the


DAF tanker had been filled with blood from a nearby abattoir before it toppled over. Luckily, it did not spill on to


Roger is recording CD to help restore church organ


AN organist is releasing a CD to raise funds to help keep a village church’s 125-year-old instrument in classic condition.


All proceeds from the 13-track


CD of organ music by Mr Roger Britnell, of Read, will go towards the upkeep of the historic Lay- cock organ, which has been in St Nicholas’s Church, in Wesley Street, Sabden, since it was made by John Laycoek in 1879. The songs will range from 16th


Century English and French tra­ ditional tunes to more modern- day music. Mr Britnell has been playing the organ for 26 years and has


been organist at St Nicholas for several years. He said: “The music has been picked to show off the potential of the instrument. It is not big, but it sounds it.”


The CD will be available to


order from the church or from Mr Britnell, on 07901 865238, and costs £9. All the money raised will go towards restoration of the organ, which costs a minimum of £500 every year. A free concert with a perfor­


mance of tracks from the CD will be held at the church hall on Fri­ day, March 4th, at 7-30 p.m. Our picture shows Mr Britnell with the organ. (G220205/4)


the road and another tanker was sent to the site to pump out the contents. Mr McGrath described the


smell of the blood as horren­ dous and said it would have been disastrous if it had spilled on to the road. Police have launched an


appeal to determine how the accident happened and sus­ pect another vehicle may have been involved. Anyone with information is


asked to call the road policing unit on 01254 353767. Our picture shows the scene


of devastation caused by the accident. (B160205/4b)
