Earwax is a natural substance that keeps the inner parts of your, ear free from dirt and debris. But excess levels of earwax can be unsightly, cause discomfort and affect your.hearing. If you think you are suffering from a build up of earwax, come and see us at the Better Hearing Clinic Event and take advantage of our FREE Wax Removal Clinic with our trained Specialist Nurse Julie Murray.
She will check your ear canal for signs of excess wax using the Video Otoscope system shown above.
If there is a higher than normal level of wax Nurse
Murray will remove the wax straight away. The state- of-the-art equipment used is a ClearSound technique that requires no harsh syringing but removes any blockage with a specially designed pulse machine or a gentle wash with warm water.
Julie says, “The Better Hearing Clinic Event is the perfect opportunity to give your ears a complete health check and it may be something as simple as earwax that is causing your hearing problems,”

Plans that could cost up to £750,000 to redevelop one of the RibbleValley’smost iconic landmarks-Clitheroe Parish Church - will be put to its con- gregationthisJuly.
More than 150 people attended a meeting at the church to discuss whether it should be extended on its north side or whether alterations should be made to the church’s interior. And at a meeting held on
Monday, the parochial church council of the church, which is also known as St Mary Magdalene, decided to em bark on a'period of consulta tion with the congregation. Architect Ivan Wilson
and members of the PCC will meet with members of the congregation to gather ideas and gauge their reactions to the plans at a series of events
to be held throughout July. Costed options have al
ready been prepared by IWA Partnership for members of the church to comment on. The church council wants
to.make the historic church, - which dates back to the 15th Century - an even more
' welcoming place for the com munity and visitors. The Rev. Andy Froud,
priest-in-charge, said: “We have the huge challenge of how to maintain and enhance this beautiful building, which already attracts visitors from all over the world. “Our primary concern is
to provide a welcoming en vironment for the growing number of people of all ages who are worshipping with us on a Sunday morning. “As I keep saying: there
is no free option. But I hope that will reassure people that whatever we option we choose to pursue can only be under taken with the help of the
whole church and the com munity which we serve.” Mr Froud explained that
the budget could be any where between £500,000 and £750,000, but the full project cost would depend on which of the options it was decided to pursue. Part of the money for the
Grade II listed church’ project will be raised through the sale of the St Mary’s Centre- on the opposite side of Church Brow - to the Lancasterfoundation and from church reserves. However, the church will
be making an appeal to its pa rishioners for help in raising the rest of the money. The church has recently
finished raising money for covering the costs of repair ing the spire, which dates back to 1848, after it fell into disre pair. Remedial work on the spire was completed at Easter. • See this week’s As I See It
column on page 8 for further discussion.

PM to visit the Valley?
Prime Minister David Cameron could be set to visit the Ribble Valley. Mr Cameron has re
portedly accepted an invi tation from Ribble Valley MP Nigel Evans to tour the borough and “broader Lan cashire constituencies”. Mr Evans said: “I am
happy to say that I spoke to the Prime Minister this week and he has affirmed his intention to take up my invitation to visit the Rib ble Valley, as has the Edu cation Secretary Michael Gove. “Both visits will allow
me to showcase our fan tastic area and I am look ing forward to getting some firm dates in the diary!” Meanwhile, during Mr
Cameron’s visit to nearby Barnoldswick last Friday, he was asked whether his impending visit to the Rib ble Valley was a sign that Mr Evans would stand again in 2015 and whether he per sonally would like him to stand. He replied: “It’s very much Nigel’s decision and the decision of the Ribble Valley constituency. “Obviously, I’m pleased
for him that he’s now back in the House of Commons, back able to work for his constituents andhe’s back as a Conservative MP.” .
