Clitheroe 422324 (Editorial), 422323 (Advertising), Burnley 422331 (Classified) Help Macmillan 'Walk Wonders' for charity


A MACMILLAN nurse who covers the Ribble Valley area is appealing for people to don their walking shoes this month to raise


funds for vital cancer services. Macmillan Cancer Support’s Walk Wonders


initiative, powered by npower, has seen fund­ raising walks take place throughout May. The Morecambe Bay Walk is taking place on Satur­ day, May 26th, from Arnside. Ribble Valley nurse Kerry Carroll said: “By


joining us, you can help Walk Wonders raise £1 million for Macmillan. The walks have been a lovely way to spend time with friends and fami­ ly of all ages while helping Macmillan.” Macmillan relies almost entirely on the sup-


port of people in the community to help fund its range of local services, which includes the Macmillan Nurses and other forms of medical support, as well as emotional, financial and prac­ tical support for those living with cancer and their families. To register to support Macmillan by

ble Valley and White Rose Ladies, who was unavoidably detained in London, sent her best wishes, saying: “I admired Angela's courage, strength and her tireless will to get better. My heart goes out to her par­ ents, who looked after her with such love and dedication. She left this world know­ ing how much she was loved. That is a priceless gift.” Angela Oldfield had joined the commit­

Joint-chairman Irene Chenery reflected: “Angela will be sorely missed by us all.”


Masons’ huge boost for air ambulance


FREEMASONS from the Ribble Valley have contributed towards a £20,000 dona­ tion to the North West Air Ambulance. The East and West Lancashire Freema­


sons each presented the charity with a cheque for £5,000 together with a cheque for a further £10,000 from the president of the Freemasons' Grand Charity in a pres­ entation at Blackpool Airport. The Freemasons' Grand Charity is the


central grant-making charity of all Freemasons in England and Wales. It con­ tinues a tradition of charitable support for both Freemasons and the wider community that began nearly 300 years ago. Jack Price, Deputy Grant Superinten­


dent of the Freemasons in East Lancashire, said: “This particular charity strikes us as an essential and much-needed service.” Donations to the NWAA can be made by


ringing 0800 5874570 during office hours, visiting its website (www.northwestairam- biilance.co.uk) or mailing cheques to FREEPOST North West Air Ambulance.

Charges relate to using mum and sister’s identities


A 26-YEAR-OLD Clitheroe woman has been ordered to stand trial at Preston Crown Court on charges arising out of her allegedly stealing her mother and s ister’s identities. Charlotte Louise Dibb, of Bracken


Hey, is alleged to have used their details to obtain credit cards and hank loans resulting in the theft of over £20,000. The specimen charges she faces


Praise for WFs campaignin


THE WI is a premier campaigning organ­ isation, highly respected by the wider com­ munity. This was the message which rang loud and clear from the Great Milk Debate held in Downham Village Hall. Individual members of the agricultural


community discussed the distribution of profits throughout the whole milk produc­ tion industry, and made clear their grati­ tude to the WI organisation for highlight­ ing the plight of the dairy farmer as he struggles to survive with farm gate prices which mean that raw milk is produced at a loss. About 100 people attended this public


meeting to hear speakers Mr William Slinger, founder member of Bowland Fresh Co-operative; Mr Eric Dowson, farmer and proprietor of Dowson’s Dairies: and Peter Dawson, policy director of Dairy UK, all give different viewpoints of the Milk Production Industry. Subsequent debate, chaired by Mr David Graveston, Lancashire NFU chairman, centred on ways forward such as farmer co-operatives and creating more direct dialogue between the producer and the retailer. Growing public awareness of food provenance and consideration of food mileage and food pro­ duction safety should be further encour-


MP backs grammars


IN light of the recent debate surrounding grammar schools, Ribble Valley MP Nigel Evans showed his support by making an impromptu visit to Clitheroe Royal Gram­ mar School before his weekly surgery. Mr Evans said: “We are blessed with a


variety of schools in the Ribble Valley, including grammar, comprehensive and independent schools. Diversity is a benefit to education, giving the choice to parents and their children. In light of recent state­ ments, I feel that it is important that the Conservative Party emphasises its support for existing grammar schools.” He saw their new language centre and


commented: “It will be open in September and there are plans for the local communi­ ty to use the facility for evening classes as well. It is projects like this that explain why I am passionate in my support for grammar schools and believe that they deserve our support.”

A 13-YEAR-OLD student from Ribblesdale High School, Clitheroe, is looking forward to being crowned as Ribchester’s Field Day Queen, 2007. Bethany Kelly, a former pupil of


St Wilfrid’s CE School, Ribch- ester, will become Queen at the annual event on June 16th. For Bethany it will be her sec­


ond stint on the Queen’s float - she was a Field Day attendant as a five-year-old. Bethany, whose hob­ bies include piano playing, singing and skiing, said her mother, Kathryn, would be making her dress for the big day. Meanwhile dad Chris, who usu­


ally marshals the Field Day Parade, will be excused from his duties to enable him to capture Bethany’s moment of fame on


camera! The Field Day attendants this year will be Jessica Johnson, Georgia Moon and Emily Royle, with page-boy Jake Despard. Field Day chairman Gill Turner


promises a bumper family day out, with attractions ranging from clowns “The Snapshot Duo” to Longridge Gymnastic Club, Ribchester’s very own Ju Jitsu Club, Ribchester morris dancers and Barn Owl Bill with his birds of


prey.. Gill added: “We’re having a


‘Most Stunning Teddy Bear’ con­ test. A prize will be awarded to the best Ted, so bring yours along to join in... votes will be cast by visi­ tors to the marquee.” The parade starts at 1-30 p.m. from Bee Mill in the village.
