Town is to get second YMGA charity shop


A SECOND YMCA charity shop will open in Clitheroe. The young people’s charity


will open its second outlet, at the former Kwik Save super­ market situated in Station Road, Clitheroe, in the mid­ dle of this month. The charity, which already


has a shop on Castle Street, plans to sell larger items, such as furniture, white goods and electricals, along­ side items like clothing, bric- a-brac and music, from the 3,500 sq ft premises. Paul Freethy, district man­


ager for YMCA shops in the North-West, said the premis­


es had been secured on a


“ rolling basis” . “We do really well with


furniture sales, but the ej^t- ing shop on Castle Street just isn’ t big enough for furni­ ture,” explained Mr Freethy. Booths supermarket,


which owns the former Kwik Save building, has long-term plans to expand its existing store onto the site, adding a restaurant and coffee shop. A spokeswoman for Booths


said YMCA would occupy the building until “ further n otice” . She added: “ The plan is to develop a cafe at a date yet to be confirmed.”

cards have been handed to people across the rural borough, as well as neigh­ bor ing Blackbum-with- Darwen and Hyndburn, displaying the message: “ In my lifetime... My home has never been safer” along with some simple crime prevention measures to help keep it that way. The “ In my lifetime”


campaign features a series of nostalgic messages to reassure people about safety while offering crime prevention information on personal safety. Chief Insp. Damian


Darcy said: “These post­ cards are designed to reas­ sure and remind people that burglary is at a 35-

year low. The chances of people being burgled are lower now than inthe ’70s, ’80s or ’90s. What else can people say has stayed the same or reduced in 35 years? “When you look at the


cost of items in the ’70s for example, such as a pint of milk, a pint of beer, a loaf of bread or the cost of a house all have all increased in price signifi­ cantly. However, burglary is at the same level now in 2009 than it was in 1974.”


He added: “We know


that, for some people, the perception of crime is far greater than the actual levels of crime, which is why we are sending out these postcards, to reas­ sure and make people feel safer. “Householders have a


crucial part to play to help us keep burglary down and the postcards have also been designed to make people stop and think about how to keep their homes safe.”

startling facts discovered by the 1st Grindleton Brownies while working on their “ Change the World” badge, -with “Rail­ way Children” as their chosen charity. Railway Children acts


as the voice of runaway and street children around


the world and believes that all children deserve to feel safe and valued. To raise money for the


charity, 13 Brownies, friends from Parish Guides, Leaders, parents, and siblings took part in a sponsored walk. The party to ok the


train from Clitheroe to Whalley, then walked back to Edisford Bridge, led by Tarja Wilson, the Leader from Parish


Guides. The Brownies were sup­


ported by Peter Moore,


from Ribble Valley Rail, and Northern Rail, who agreed for the whole party to travel free of charge if their fares were added to the sponsorship monies. So far more than £140 has been raised. The walk was perfect,


except for one grazed knee and a torrential downpour on arrival at Edisford which washed the well- earned ice creams away! Our picture shows the
