Fun for all the festive shoppers


by Faiza Afzaal


EXCITING plans to enhance Clitheroe into a vibrant shop­ ping destination this Christ­ mas have been unveiled. Members of Clitheroe’s


A BRIGHT pink aura sur­ rounded pupils at Brookside Primary School on Friday as they helped promote breast cancer awareness with a “Wear It Pink” day. Organised by the Bright


Street school’s council, chil­ dren dressed in pink and wore pink wigs, hats, hair bands and sunglakes raising £350 for the Breast Cancer Campaign


charity. The funds raised will sup­


port vital research work into understanding how breast can­ cer develops, leading to improved diagnosis, treatment and cure. To provide further informa­


tion about this life-threatening disease, ladies connected with the school are invited to a breast cancer awareness evening at 7 p.m. on Tuesday. The aim of the evening will be to educate woman how to check for the signs of breast


cancer. A “Pink Ball” organ­ ised by the Clitheroe school’s PTA and held a t Clitheroe Golf Club on Saturday raised a further £1,300 for the chari­ ty.

Town to be a vibrant shopping destination over Christmas


local shopkeepers and mem­ bers of the public turned out in force to hear the CCTC’s plans for Christmas 2009. Mr Nigel Pratt, the cham­


ber’s president was delighted by the enthusiasm of people. He commented: “We have been overwhelmed by the support and energy of our town’s traders, businesses and independent entrepreneurs, who have come together like never before to take pro­ active steps and a rallying call to action in making Clitheroe a top priority and destination choice for local shopping, tourism and leisure.


“Encouraged by the record


breaking uptake in member­ ship over the last couple of months, we have now been able to put into practise plans and proposals in enhancing Clitheroe as a vibrant shop­ ping destination over the Christmas period.” Under the plans, a varied


range of entertainment and activities will be held to com­ pliment the late night Thurs­ day shopping experience in December. There will also be an official Christmas lights “switch on” ceremony for the first late night launch event.
