WHALLEY High Street’s brand new deli is a dream come true for owner Amy Slinger.


After several years of waiting for the per­ fect premises to come along and months of hard work, Amy has opened her dream deli supplying some of the finest delicacies the world


, has to offer. The fifth generation of a family that has been involved in the food industry for more than a century, it is no surprise that Amy aspired to making her own mark in the Business world. The daughter of John and Lorna Slinger of Great Harwood meat manu­ facturers Slinger’s Meats, and the sister of Robert Slinger, who is also in the food industry; Amy joined the family business after leaving college, but always hoped one day to use all her years' experience ■ and knowledge to set up on her own.

Rail link support from all quarters


GUEST speaker at Clitheroe University O f The Third A g e (U3A) meeting was Andy Shackleton, liaison officer for SELRAP (Skipton-East Lancashire Rail Action Partnership), assisted by media officer Jane Wood, who read out a message o f support from the U3A chairman Colin Armstrong. This voluntary group is campaigning to


reinstate the missing 11.5-mile rail link between Skipton and Colne. The speakers explained how the


campaign base has grown. It has the cross-party support o f 343


councils across the North of England, including Lancashire and Yorkshire County Councils, and more than 1,400 members and affiliated groups. There have also been 163 members o f


Parliament, 94 peers and 44 members o f the European Parliament pledging their support, as have 140 businesses. Others backing the campaign include


members o f the rail industry, the Archbishop o f York, Dr John Sentamu, television and radio presenter Dame Joan Bakewell, together with Julia Bradbury from BBC’s Countryfile and Railway Walks programmes. Andy and Jane spoke about the contrast

So whether you fancy a tasty sandwich or need that something extra to put the


wow factor into a recipe, look no further than Amy’s Deli.

line would bring great economic benefits and regeneration to the local area, but also help with social and economic mobility across the North o f England, by connecting the ports of Liverpool and Hull. Jane spoke about her work to promote


the campaign with the media, including the visit by Andy and two other SELRAP members to Brussels to meet MEPs. For more information about the work of


this group, visit www.selrap.org.uk. The next U3A coffee morning will take
