To celebrate National Bookstart Day the children's depart ment a t Clitheroe Library is holding free “My favourite nursery rhyme” sessions at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. today. . • Young visitors to Whal- ley library are busy casting votes for their top nursery rhyme from a short list of three. Children have until the end of this week to choose

ing. Headteacher Mr Stephen
Cox said: “There are exciting plans ahead to improve out door PE and sports facilities and develop a year-round pro gramme for commumty use at Bowland High School follow ing the school’s successful bid to LCC Extended Services for capital funding towards the provision of an all weather external playing surface. “A grant for £100,000 has
been awarded to support this small schools cluster of Bow land, as well as Grindleton, Waddington and West Brad ford, Bolton by Bowland, Brennands Endowed and Thomeyholme primaries.
“Matched funding will also
be required to ensure th a t the project is completed within the timescales set by th e authority and discussions are currently being held w ith potential sponsors and f in d ing partners. Organisations interested in participating in this exciting initiative should contact the school.” To achieve extended servic
es status schools must offer a variety of activities, support and information for parents, easy access to specialist serv ices and community access to school services such as adult learning, ICT and sports facil ities. Primary schools must also offer childcare between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. 48 weeks a
year. The county council has exceeded its target of 85% of schools offering extended semces and hopes to increase this to all schools in less than a year's time.

A taste sensation!
AS part of its fifth birthday celebrations, Stanley House Hotel at Mellor welcomed 250 of its own brides and bride grooms back for a special anniversary “Forget Me Knot” party. The celebration was the
first of its kind in Lancashire and “newlyweds” from across the country flocked to the lux ury wedding venue to mingle with fellow Stanley House couples and reminisce about their big day. Among th e guests was
Fleetwood millionaire Karl Crompton, who famously won £10.9m. on the National Lot tery in 1996 and was one of the first to marry a t Stanley House. The couples shared their memories, introduced their children and decorated a “family tree” in the reception
with their wedding photos, as they sipped champagne. Oliver Cooke, Stanley
House general manager, explained: “Everyone has a special place in their heart for the venue where they tied the knot, so this was the perfect way to mark our own anniver sary.” Every couple received a for
get-me-not plan t to take home as a memento and a Forget Me Knot VIP card, which is available exclusively to Stanley House brides and grooms and opens the door to unique offers and ideas for events, accommodation and dining. Our picture shows Mellor
couple Mark and Nicola Powsney, who returned to Stanley House with their nine-month old son Samuel.
A MOTORIST returned to find the front nearside win dow of his vehicle had been smashed. Offenders struck the VW
Passat parked in the drive way of a house in Pendle Drive, Whalley, between 4-30 p.m. last Tuesday and 3-50 p.m. the following day.

regarding this incident, please call police on 01200 443344 or the free and confidential Crimestoppers line on 0800 555 111.

Clitheroe Advertiser &Times, Thursday, October 8th, 2009 13 iTeegle your unwanted goodies
IF you’re done with it, but its too good to tip and you don’t want
the bother of selling it, why not “freegle” it? That's the offer from a local group
dedicated to keeping anything from armchairs to zedbeds out of landfill. Formerly par t of the American- originated Freecycle Network, local
organisers have joined with other groups nationwide to establish a net work which they feel is more appropri ate to the UK, caUed “F r ^ e ”. “We just want to stop useful stuff
going to landfill,” said local organiser and ardent “recyclist” Liz Cook, of BiUington. “Our aim is that nothing should go to the tip if someone can use what you are throwing out.”
Brides and grooms’ one big anniversary
Combining “Free” and “Google” to
form a new verb, they hope that “to freegle” will soon be in as common use as “to google” when people look to find a new home for unwanted items. The Ribble Valley Freegle group
offers the chance to donate unwanted items to someone local who has a use for them. You can also post a “want ed” notice on Freegle and, with any
ANNIVERSARY 25™ 'MB
luck, find you have spurred someone to clear out their garage and donate th a t item. Membership of the group is free and the only requirement is th a t items to be “freegled” are free, legal and appropriate for all ages. Founded in 2006, there are over
1,200 members in the Ribble Valley who together have posted nearly 10,000 times. “You wouldn't believe
some of the items we have re- homed,”said Liz. “Greenhouses, a punch bag, even a harpsichordl ” Liz is hoping that local members
will help spread the word, so if you want to get rid of that old sofa or any thing else for that matter, just freeze it! You can join th e group at:
