THE wardens and a member of the community had a walk around Rosegrove recently and took 25 different photographs of the 'grot spots' in the area.

Some backyards were full of rubbish and black bin bags thrown about, one of the culprits in Rosegrove left their name and address in the black bags and hopefully will be prosecuted and may give a message to other offenders. Please report anyone you see dumping rubbish.

THERE are a few 2004 calendars left - they make an ideal Christmas present for your family and friends and only cost £2. See Ken Tomlinson at Greenbrook Methodist Church before it is too late.

THE Quantum Theatre visited Lowerhouse Junior School recently for a production of Quirks in the Works. The children thoroughly enjoyed the show.

THE Family Social Evening in the hall at St Mark's Church on Rossendale Road was the place to be last week. The evening's entertainment was enjoyed by a capacity filled crowd in the church hall and they can't wait for the next one.

FATHER Christmas paid a visit to Rosegrove Action Group Shop this week and provided the children with a selection box. The children asked Santa for some unusual presents and he also received a few letters from the children - one in particular was from a farm in Kelbrook.
