Councillor Harry Grayson and Ken Moss have recorded various small problems in Rishton and reports have been sent to the relevant departments within the council. Among the issues noted were cracked and uneven paving slabs along Burton Street and broken glass and builders’ rubble along a section of derelict houses on Spring Street. Widening potholes on Bridge Street and Cliff Street have also been reported.
Ken Moss also spent several hours at Rishton railway station on Saturday 6th March clearing rubbish and weeding the area behind the Accrington platform. Other members of the Prospects team, consisting of Colin Cooper, Fiona Cook and John and Margaret Worden, transformed a grass verge into a beautiful shrubbery in just under two hours using plants that had been rescued from a skip!
Anyone interested in getting involved with Prospects can call Ken Moss on 01254 882797. The voluntary group is open to all residents with an interest in the Rishton environment and meetings are held on the first Tuesday of every month at 7.00pm at Primetime on Stourton Street.
