DANCE teacher and examiner, Gladys Sut­ cliffe, celebrated her 60 th birthday in famous company when she


;shared the stage at High Wycombe’s Swan ■Theatre with sporting heroes Trevor Brooking


and Lawrence Dallaglio. However, while th ey


received honorary degrees for their services to sport and to Buckinghamshire New University, Mrs Sut­ cliffe, of Clitheroe, spent- two years combining her teaching and examining commitments with d is ­ tance learning in the Fac­ u lty of Enterprise and Innovation, to achieve first-class honours in her BA course in Professional Studies. Already a senior mem­


ber of the International Dance Teachers’ A^ocia- tion with fellowships in all theatre subjects, Mrs Sut­


cliffe’s new award illus­ trates how learning is now a life-long process, with opportunities for people of all ages to extend their knowledge and profession­ al qualifications. She says: “Though com­


bining family and work commitments with extend­ ed study of material often not directly related to my previous work experience proved very demanding, achieving first-class hon­ ours made all the travels ling and research worth­ while. : “It.aiso proves that it is


. never too late to leaml” As she now embarks on a two-year MA course,'


• Mrs Sutcliffe knows that there is much more serious


study ahead if she is to extend'her professional qualifications even further. Pictured is Mrs Sutcliffe

.AROUND 100 people took


. part in this year’s Amelia Cup 10k run raising approximately £3,000 for Csratic Fibrosis suf­ ferers. The event is inspired by


seven-year-old Amelia Dickin­ son, of Whalley, who despite suffering ■with the condition, completed the whole route by both w a lto g and jogging. She finally crossed the finishing line to a round of applause


• and cheers from fellow com­ petitors and spectators. Amelia’s sister, nihe-year-


bld Ella, also did hermit proud finishing in 56th place ■with a time of 72 minutes and 54 sec- onds.r- V Now in it s sixth year, the


tun, which follows a route around the Ribble Valley set­ ting off from West Bradford Village Hall, is organised by Aimie Hamer, of Re:Fit Per­ sonal Training, and Gail Bai­ ley, of Pure Health and Beau­ ty, along'with Amelia’s mother Samantha Dickinson. The first man to cross the


VIEW


finishing line was John Roche, with a time of 40 minutes and 32 seconds, while the first woman home was Eileen Sum-' ner with a time of 47 minutes 43 seconds. “As ever we want to say a


huge thank you to everyone who took part, said Gail. ■ “We appreciate it so much,


some people have supported us in all six runs! “Thanks also to Sainshurys


for supplying the water bot­ tles and all those who helped and marshalled including members of Clitheroe Ladies’ Circle. “People’s generosity and kindne^ is fantastic and espe-


. dally good at a time when all we ever seem to hear on the news is doom and gloom.” Aimie was also running in


the Great North Run this weekend in aid of CF also. Any further donations can


be made on the Just Giving web page at the following: www.justgiving.com/ameli- acuplOk'

Time to get together


“GETTING together” is the theme of this year’s Age Con­ cern week. From next Monday, Octo­


ber 13th, across Lancashire individuals of all ages will be urged to include older people in their actmties. Throughout Age Concern


Week, which runs until Octo­ ber 19th, the charity will be promoting initiaitives across the county aimed at encour­ aging people of all ages to unite, make new friends and find new interests to beat the loneliness and isolation which affects one in 10 people over the age of 65. As part of the celebration,-


an afternoon of music, danc­ ing and entertainment will take place in Clitheroe next Wednesday, October 15th, at The Grand in York Street between 1 and 4 p.m. As well as an exhibition of art and craft work, there will also be music from the Eric Ainsworth Trio. Tickets for


the event cost £2, including refreshments. To book a place contact Kath Mitchell on 01200 453073. Geraldine Moore, of Age •


Concern Lancashire, said: “Most of us take the compa­ ny and help we get from friends and family for grant­ ed, hut for many older people loneliness and isolation mean that simple tasks can become a struggle, and for disabled and bereaved people the struggle can be even greater. Age Concern wants to.make sure that everyone realises that we can all contribute in different ways. Something as simple as sharing a meal, helping w ith shopping or doing odd jobs for them can make a huge difference to their wellbeing.” • Anyone looking for help


or information about Age Concern’s work, or those will­ ing to volunteer their time or ,- skills can con ta c t Linda Salazar on 01200 453076.
