IN May, 2007, the Clitheroe Line Community Rail Partner­ ship was launched with a music train and a ceremony in the Council Chambers in Clitheroe. The partnership was formed to


help promote, and protect, the rail service between Clitheroe and Man­ chester and is supported by North­ ern Rail, Ribble Valley Borough Council, Lancashire County Coun­ cil, Blackburn with Darwen Bor­ ough Council, Network Rail,


' GMPTE, Ribble Valley Rail - the user group for the line - Clitheroe the Future and many others. The Clitheroe Line Partnership


works closely with the other com­ munity rail partnerships in the area and has been involved in Communi­


ty Rail Day for the past three years and is also supportive of the spon­ sorship by the East Lancashire CRP of the Rhythm and Blues Fes­ tival that takes place in Colne each year.


The partnership is also closely


involved with the Ribble Valley Rail Santa Services, which once again will he running in December. Successes include the retention of


the Sunday services on the line and an increase, above the national aver­ age, of passenger numbers. The Ribble Valley Rail website


goes from strength to strength and was placed third in its category at the Community Rail Awards which took place in Bexhill, East Sussex, recently. The partnership has also pro­


duced an award-winning marketing strategy and this was placed second in the final awards in Bexhill.


As part of the strategy, the part­


nership has produced a number of leaflets to help promote the line. A leaflet advertising guided walks between the Clitheroe and East Lancashire Lines is in its second year and a leaflet about the history of the lines, produced by partner­ ship Officers Brian Haworth and Simon Clarke, is proving very pop­ ular. A self-guide walks leaflet is in its


final stage of design and will be printed soon and it is hoped that other leaflets and brochures will fol­ low. Further information can be found


by contacting either of the partner­ ship officers on: brian.haworth@cnv.lancscc.gov.uk


or simon.clarkc@env.lancscc.gov.uk or by visiting www.elcrp.org or www.ribblevalleyrail.co.uk


‘Amazing experience’ is verdict on concert


THE first recital of Clitheroe Concert Society’s 56th Season proved a triumph, enjoyed by an audience of 87. Among them were people


who had travelled especially from South Wales and the Lake District. Also very wel­ come were some young people -


the society grants free entry to schoolchildren and full-time


students. The Galliard Ensemble, a


wind quintet, played with the pianist Sam Haywood in a var­ ied programme of piano solos, a quintet for wind instruments and a sextet and quintet for piano and winds. The reputations of the play­


ers preceded them. The Gal- liards are one of the leading British chamber groups, with a friendly, communicative enthu­ siasm for their music. They are more likely found


performing in the Wigmore or Bridgewater Halls rather than Clitheroe, but they were clear­ ly delighted to he playing here. Sam Haywood immediately


showed why he is judged to be one of the best young pianists in the world, acclaimed for his passion, virtuosity and capti­ vating performances. The concert started with the


well-known early piano and wind quintet in E flat Op. 16,


by Beethoven. From the first few bars, we knew we were to have an excellent evening. In a change of mood, Sam Hay­ wood played two solo piano pieces by Beethoven. The first of these was the


Andante Favori, which started life as the middle movement of the Waldstein sonata. After criticism, he replaced the movement, and later published it separately. This was played with consid­


erable skill, emphasising that its complexity does not get in


the way of its attractiveness. The second was “The Rage


over the Lost Penny”, which is a brilliant, exciting piece of music, ideal for showing off Sam’s keyboard skills. The first piece of music after


the interval was Gustav Holst’s Wind Quintet, interest­ ing because it was mislaid soon after its composition in 1903 and only rediscovered in 1978 in a museum in Surrey. It was an enjoyable work, partially based on folk tunes. The final work was Poulenc’s

American writers given a warm Valley welcome


AMERICAN journalists toured the Ribble Valley yester­ day to experience its culinary delights and seek out stories and ideas to promote the region as a visitor destination through­ out the USA. The tour group followed a


food and drink trail through the villages of Chipping and Hurst Green, visiting Stonyhurst Col­ lege, Bashall Bam and Bowland Brewery, and exploring the area's Tolkien connections. Tom Wright is chief executive


of national tourism agency Vis- itBritain, which organised the regional tour. He said: “This is a fantastic


coup for the North West and the whole of Britain. “Not only do conventions


Sextet for piano and wind, written in the 1930’s. This is an extraordinary work, light­ hearted, exuberant, tuneful and wide-ranging in its emo­ tions. I t allowed the players to show their mastery of their instruments and the music in the very best manner. One member commented


afterwards th a t “it was an amazing experience. The talent gathered was stunningly good and as for the pianist...”

It’s all in the genes for these villagers


CHARITY runs in the genes of kind-hearted staff and residents at the Manor House in Chatburn. Staff at the home arrived at work dressed


in jeans last Friday to take part in “Jeans for Genes Day”. Jeans for Genes is a national appeal where


everyone across the UK is asked to throw out the usual dress rules, jump into their jeans and donate to help children with genetic dis­ orders. Residents and day care visitors (pictured)


all joined in the fun of the fund-raising event and raised more than £50 for the charity with ,v a raffle'and donations from staff, (s)


such as this bring welcome rev­ enue to local and regional visi­ tor economies, but delegates will take back a host of story ideas for the travel pages of newspapers and magazines and for TV and radio programmes broadcast to millions of con­


sumers throughout the US.” VisitBritain - along with the


Northwest Regional Develop­ ment Agency, England's North Country and Marketing Man­ chester - welcomed more than 500 American journalists for the 52nd annual convention of the Society of American Travel Writers from October 5th to 10th. The delegates were hosted in


Manchester and, thanks to a series of trips arranged through­ out Britain, the publicity they generate could help bring more Americans to the country. Mr Wright added: “Ameri­


cans remain Britain's most important source of inbound visitors, but we-are facing increasing competition from around the world. By guaran­ teeing society members a warm welcome and a fantastic experi­ ence, we can ensure they return home to remind American trav­ ellers why Britain remains their favourite long haul destina­ tion.”
