A community-led initiative to establish a Bolton-by-Bow- land and Gisburn Forest (Tos­ side) Neighbourhood Plan is moving ahead. ■ The Localism Act (2011)


introduced statutory Neigh­ bourhood Planning in Eng­ land, enabling communities to draw up a Neighbourhood Plan for their area. It is in­ tended to give communities more of a say in the develop­ ment of their local area, in­ cluding where new homes and businesses might be built and what they should looklike. ADraftPlanforBolton-by-


Bowland and Gisburn Forest has been drawn up after a se­ ries of consultation meetings and at a meeting January 5th, Bowlton-by-Bowland, Gis­ burn Forest and Sawley Par­ ish Council voted in favour of adopting the Draft Neigh­ bourhood Plan and putting it out for public consultation.


The parish council has


been driving the initiative and is keen that everyone- in the area should read the draft plan. Itwillbeavailable to read on the parish coun­ cil website (www.tsbparish. org.uk) and hard copies can be found at Bolton-by-Bow- land Village Hall, The Shop and Tea Rooms, St Peter and St Paul’s Church, Informa-, tion Centre, and in Tosside at The Community Hall and St Bartholomew’s Church. In addition, any Parish Coun­ cil member will have a copy available from January 19th to the March 1st 2015. Anyone with comments to


' express regarding the Draft Plan can contact parish clerk Cathy Holmes on www.jrd. holmes@btinternet.com or write to: Cathy Holmes, Par­ ish Clerk, Bolton-by-Bow- land, Gisburn Forest and Sawley Parish Council, High­ er Scarloom House, Holden,


near Clitheroe, BB47PF. A Representation Form


and letter is being distributed to all residents and other or­ ganisations within the area. Looking ahead, all com­


ments on the draft plan will be considered by the Steering Groupandrecommendations will be made to the Parish Council about any amend­ ments to the Neighbourhood Plan. It will then be revised, in line with the recommen- cjations before being submit­ ted to Ribble Valley Borough Council. The borough council will


then re-consult on the Neigh­ bourhood Plan before it is subjected to an examination byanlndependentExaminer. Once adopted by Rib­


ble Valley Borough Council, the plan will be used to help determine planning appli­ cations in the Parishes of B ol- ton-by-Bowland and Gisburn Forest (Tosside).

Entrepreneurial pupils from Salesbury CE Primary School raised more than £500 for RockFM’s Mission Christmas Campaign. Following a visit to School


I f o l l b C E ',’4


Assembly from representa­ tives of the charity, the Junior Children set about planning a project to raise money. The most popular idea


was to make, bring in and sell items in a Christmas Market at the village school. In less than aweek, the chil­ dren managed to make many


Christmas items, including decorations, gifts, food and drink. Also for sale were toys and books brought from home - as well as bird feeders and gi­ ant African Snails! The market, set in each of.


the five Key Stage Two classes, was a huge success. Almost all items were sold


and the children, staff and parents who attended were full of compliments for the children. Deputy Headteacher Mr Andrew Kellington com­


mented: “We are immensely proud of our children. From the initial idea, to the planning and holding of the Market, the children showed tremendous business and creativity skills, aswell as empathy for chil­ dren who are less fortunate at Christmastime.” Following the market, two


■ pupils from school visited Rock FM in Preston to hand over their cheque for £559 to DJ Jordan North and the Cash for Kids team at Mission Christmas.
