Dog walkers, your eyes and ears needed If you take your dog out for a walk regularly, then more than likely you will know your community well.
F
or example, if you notice that someone’s milk hasn’t been taken in or their curtains are drawn, which is out of the ordinary, it would really be appreciated if you could phone 101 and report it to the Police. With your keen observation skills noting unusual behaviour, you may help a vulnerable or elderly person who has become ill or fallen and you could make the difference between life and death!
made aware of anything out of the ordinary or suspicious, you will make a big difference in the community where you walk your dog and may stop someone being swindled, harassed or being alone and needing help. You might also see a crime in progress and, in that case, phone the Police on 999. Are you interested in helping out this way? If you are, could you please contact me so I can add you to the list of dog walkers and the area you and your pet regularly cover. YOU can make a difference just out walking around in the fresh air. Thank you!
Another way that you can really assist others in the area is by looking out for any ‘sales people’ or suspicious-looking ‘workers’. Unfortunately, it is a fact that unscrupulous people tend to target those who are vulnerable or elderly, making them pay well over the odds for repairs, which Sue Blackburn, Watch Liaison Officer, turn out in some cases, to be shabby work or no Lancashire Constabulary on 01253 604134 or email: susan.blackburn@lancashire.pnn. work at all. police.uk.

Volunteers needed for Stanley Park Volunteers are being sought to help at Stanley Park bandstand
T
he Friends of Stanley Park have issued a plea for more people to help them out during the events that take place through the summer.
The free bandstand events take place every Sunday between May and September, as well as an extra event on the August bank holiday Monday. People are needed to help with marshalling people at the events, as well as with clearing up afterwards. The first bands take to the bandstand this year on 31st May and will carry on until 27 September, the Chair of the Friends of Stanley Park is excited about the upcoming programme. Elaine Smith, said: ‘Yet again this year there are some excellent bands coming to the park for people to enjoy. As well as the regular array of brass and youth bands, we also have the return of the prestigious Stowe Big Band on 21 June. That will be fantastic event that lots of people can enjoy. However, these great events don’t put on themselves. We need volunteers to spare us a just a few hours of their weekend to put these kinds of shows on. In return, they get to spend their Sunday in the glorious Stanley Park listening to some fantastic music.’
The first events listed are; Sunday 7th June: Frayed at the Edges and The Monster Squad, Classic Hard Rock, Funk, Disco and House at the bandstand. 1pm to 5pm Sunday 14th June: Touch the Bandstand with Touch the Pearl and guest DJ Ed Mahon spinning some funky summer tunes to get everyone in the mood. 1pm to 5pm Sunday 21st June: Stowe Big Band 11am to 1pm, Park School Brass Band 1pm to 1.45pm. Preston Concert Band 2pm to 4pm Sunday 28th June: Bob On and Spectral Rebel, Sorted and DJs. 1pm to 5pm Sunday 5th July: Kudos, Dark Blue Suits, Dirty Work, 1pm to 5pm. Also in the Italian Gardens the Stanley Park Motorcycle Show. For information, or to applying as a volunteer, call 316713 or email Carole Thaw on carolethaw001@gmail.com

FAR RIGHT: From left, Stephen Gregson, Norman Tenray and Andrew Howarth RIGHT & BELOW: Stephen Gregson talks to delegates on the QES breakfast at Preston’s College
No need for businesses to panic despite slower growth A positive picture for Lancashire businesses was painted as the results of the latest Quarterly Economic Survey were revealed
S
tephen Gregson, of Moore and Smalley chartered accountants, gave an inspirational talk on the state of the county’s businesses following detailed responses to questions by companies across the county. The QES is compiled nationally by the British Chambers of Commerce and in Lancashire by the three Chambers, North and Western Lancashire, East Lancashire and Lancaster. Mr Gregson told the event at Preston’s College, attended by about 100 businessmen and women: ‘There has been a significant increase in the manufacturing sector in the recruitment of full-time jobs. This is one example of the ups and downs of the economy. We do not have to get too panicked about it. What comes with this is that we are getting a greater sense of predictability. We have a sense of what the risks are and we can do more planning for that. What it is suggesting with recruitment being down is a little bit of a cause for concern but maybe what we are seeing is that recruitment has gone down because there has been more invested in kit, and that is one way of getting worker productivity up.
could be because of confidence or there could just be a sense of people being fed up with doing nothing and wanting to just get on and try to do something.’ Mr Gregson’s talk was followed by a question and answer session with Andrew Howarth, managing director of The Promenade Group, which owns Bartle Hall near Preston and The Glendower Hotel in Lytham, and a networking session. NWL Chamber president Norman Tenray said: “While the figures are in a slight decline, I am actually really reassured because we can see a bit of continuity and a little bit of sustainability coming through. ‘The results over the past four years have shown that there is that consistency. Originally, for the first couple of years it was quite flat when we were really in deep recession but now we are coming out of recession we are starting to get some nice peaks and troughs, which is good because obviously if you go through a bit of growth you have got to consolidate and you have got to see those results come in and then you are going to invest. What I would urge any business out there to do is follow the QES, contribute to the QES and actually get along here and discuss the results with other businesses at this event because it is incredibly powerful. I use these results as one of the key indicators to help me make decisions within my business and I have found it incredibly accurate.’
He continued; ‘If anything signifies that people feel confident about the future it must be investment and recruitment. Investment has gone up. If you are thinking that the future might be better you might be thinking about going to the bank and asking for money for investment. Our experience is we are starting to get swamped with transactional work. We are getting more Lancashire Chamber of Commerce and more enquiries about buying and selling.

Classic scones with Sweet Eve Strawberries and cream This classic British summertime treat is served with beautiful British strawberries.
Preparation time: 5 minutes Cooking time: 15 minutes Makes 8 scones You’ll need: 225g self-raising flour Pinch of salt 55g butter 25g caster sugar 150ml milk 1 free-range egg, beaten 400g punnet Sweet Eve strawberries Clotted or whipped cream to serve 40
Method: Preheat the oven to 220C. Lightly grease a baking sheet. Mix together the flour and salt and rub in the butter to form breadcrumbs. Stir in the sugar and then add the milk a bit at a time until a soft dough forms. Turn on to a floured surface and knead gently. Roll out to a depth of about 2cm. Using a 5cm cutter, stamp out rounds and place on the prepared baking sheet. Gently knead any remaining dough together, roll out and cut more scones.
Continue until all the dough is used. Using a pastry brush, lightly cover each scone with the beaten egg. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until well risen and golden. Meanwhile, slice the Sweet Eve strawberries and set aside. When the scones are ready, cool on a wire rack, then split and spread on a thick layer of cream. Top with slices of Sweet Eve strawberries. www.sweetevestrawberry.co.uk

Minions begins at the dawn of time. Starting as singlecelled yellow organisms, Minions evolve through the ages, perpetually serving the most despicable of masters. Continuously unsuccessful at keeping these masters-from T. rex to Napoleon-the Minions find themselves without someone to serve and fall into a deep depression. But one Minion named Kevin has a plan, and healongside teenage rebel Stuart and lovable little Bob-ventures out into the world to find a new evil boss for his brethren to follow. The trio embarks upon a thrilling journey that ultimately leads them to their next potential master, Scarlet Overkill (Academy Award® winner Sandra Bullock), the world’s first-ever female super-villain. They travel from frigid Antarctica to 1960s New York City, ending in mod London, where they must face their biggest challenge to date: saving all of Minionkind... from annihilation.

Carleton & District WI celebrate their Pearl Anniversary Writes Kathy Scanlon and the WI committee
C
arleton Womens Institiute was founded 30 years ago in 1885. On the 14th April, Carleton WI took the opportunity to celebrate their Pearl Anniversary with a special members meeting event held at St Martin’s & St Hilda’s Church Hall, Carleton. To go with our afternoon tea our members enjoyed a piece of Anniversary Cake – with Pearl Anniversary written in icing across the top plus pearl decorations. Members took the opportunity to wear Pearls. We enjoyed listening to the many stories of when our members wore their pearls e.g. to family weddings and accounts of pearls given to mark important family occasions. The group still has 3 of the founder members; Ann Williams, Dorothy Holmes and Edna Hemming who regularly attending the members meetings. Carleton WI presented the 3 Founder members with a special handmade card, adorned with pearls, to mark the occasion.
