BUDDING local photographers are in the frame at Clitheroe’s new museum. An exhibition called “Your.


Clitheroe” will be on display at Clitheroe Castle Museum until August. - More than 50 local people from


across the Ribble Valley, including the borough’s Mayor, Coun. Bev- - erley Jones, were given a dispos-


Ribble Valley is


able camera to record aspects of their life, work and the local land­ scape.


, -School children, the elderly, ’ council workers, business people and members of sports clubs, were . asked to capture images showing why the Ribble Valley is special to . them. Members of Ribblesdale - Camera Club also took part in the ; project and ran their own compe­


tition on the same theme. Clitheroe Castle Museum manag­ er Rachel Jackson said: “The. museum is inspired by 350 million


• years of history and .what better way to portray this than by ask­ ing local people to tell us wHy Clitheroe is so special to them. ■ :. . “All these photographs show a


place of natural beauty, deep his­ tory and vibrant creativity,- a


‘ place where people want to live, work and enjoy.” . ; ebun; Jones added: “It was dif­


ficult to choose which photo­ graphs to take from so many love-. ly potential-images, b u t my favourite was definitely of traders ‘ a t Clitheroe Market, because of the immediacy of their day-to- day activities, as well as the beau­ ty of the landscape.’’ ■ - ■

SECOND-HAND car.sellers are being warned about new legislation which means vehicles sold by the roadside will come under closer scrutiny from Trading Standards, ‘police and district councils. . -


‘ The agencies have teamed up to • tackle rogue traders who disguise, themselves as members of the pub­ lic in order to peddle unroadworthy, •


: .“clocked”, or even stolen vehicles. ' New Trading Standards legisla- , tion, introduced in October, now:


makes i t an offence for a trader to


' claim or create the impression they. are not acting as a trade or busi-


: ness, or falsely pass themselves off asaconsumer. ■


- Lancashire County, Council’s chief Trading Standards officer,


■ Jim Potts, said: “Rogue traders use these tactics to attempt to get out


• of their legal obligations and deny consumers their statutory, legal


rights. “The new legislation does not


affect ordinary people who are offering their own car for. sale, or reputable traders who operate


properly from recognised business premises. What it does do is allow us to weed out those who pretend to be seeking a one-off sale when what'they are really doing is run- . ning a business._ - •;


• . “Rogue traders operating in this


way have a detrimental affect on: both consumers and legitimate ,


traders alike; - ■ - , . : “This anti-social behaviour also


affects local residents and business, with legitimate motorists unable to park their car. . -


: '■


“Consumers need to be aware of the legislation and the fact that


there are less-than-honest people out there, while traders need to


.think carefully, about what it means for them.. .“Motorists need to think very'-


carefully before buying a car from a stranger in a lay-by. Any consumers who.would like further advice


■ should contact Consumer Direct on' 0845404 05 06.” ■ The multi-agency taskforce will use their combined powers to target


. the numbers of “for sale” carsp- rently blighting the county’s high- ; ways. The team will also be liaising with fraud officers.
