Weather causes vintage rally to be scrapped


ORGANISERS of the Ribble Valley Vintage Club’s annual rally have reluctantly can­ celled this year's event due to the recent poor weather. Previously held just off the


A59 Sawley Brow, this year the rally had moved to a new site in Fence and was due to take place this coming weekend. However, with six days to go


organisers were forced to take the difficult decision to cancel the event. Mr Rod Gregg, one of the


main organisers, said: “There is no way the field will be ready in time. The grass has not been mown and the owner is on holiday. The field is so


wet now that mowing is impos­ sible and I do not see it drying out in time.” The event was due to be


held in a field off Cuckstool Lane, Fence, just over the Reedley Hallows parish boundary on Saturday and Sunday. Once the decision to cancel


was made, the organisers start­ ed alerting would-be exhibitors

Self Reliance in Africa is organising a walk across Morecambe Bay on Sunday, September 7th, under the leadership of Cedric Robin­ son - Her Majesty’s Guide to the Sands. Self Reliance in Africa was


founded by two local teach­ ers, Simon Andrews, a deputy head at Stonyhurst College, and his wife, Bar­ bara, a teacher at Oakhill College.


- , Sarah Andrews, their daughter, worked with Tan­ zanian street children during her gap year and when her p a r |J |) visited her in'East AfrTR, the need to help young African men and women get into employment became abundantly clear. - A third trustee, Val Edge,


formerly Head of Adult Edu­ cation at Blackburn College, joined Simon' and Barbara’s venture when the charity was registered in 2006.


Barbara Andrews


explained: “Self Reliance in Africa seeks to provide edu­ cation, training and tools for young people in Africa to enable them to gain employ­ ment and so become self- reliant. “The charity pays for sec­


ondary school fees, driving lessons, apprenticeships and language courses. It also pro­ vides tools and work-clothing for aspiring car mechanics and builders. We have an ambition to help young Africans with university fees one day.” The Morecambe Bay walk .


leaves Arnside at 10-15 a.m. and should reach Kent’s Bank, near Grange-over- Sands, soon after 1 p.m. There will be a tractor and trailer following behind to go to the aid of anybody need­ ing assistance. Barbara added: “We are


looking for up to 600 people to join us everybody is wel­ come so bring your family and friends.” ■ ' It is a walk for charity, so there is a small registration fee to reserve your place with Self Reliance, in Africa beforehand. If you would like to join


the Morecambe Bay walk on September. 7th, send an e- mail with your details to: , sria@live.co.uk or call 01254 826251 for more details.
