  • Annual Report 2017 -2018
    LANCASHIRE COUNTY RUGBY FOOTBALL UNION ANNUAL REPORT 2017-18 THE SECRETARY’S OPENING REMARKS Firstly I have to thank the President, Steve Blackburn. Steve has done tremendous work over the year in travelling around clubs and representing the County. A truly approachable gentleman who has brought his own distinct sense of humour to the office. A lot of my Monday mornings have included a phone call from Steve starting with the phrase “I think I may have got away with it but……”. Needless to say the tales have me in stitches. As well as his Presidential duties he is an active member of the Disciplinary and Club & Community Committees which means he’s constantly on the go with his County missionary work. Steve has the huge support of his wife Val, who is also involved on the Mini & Junior committee. A couple entrenched in rugby and its administration, thank you both. To Rugby matters, Our Senior XV have reached the final and other reports in this booklet will cover how they got there, at the time of printing we are in the run up to the final at Twickenham against Hertfordshire whom we were runners up to in the final of the 2011-2012 season. Thanks to Mark Nelson, Steve Rigby, John Greenwood and all the backroom team, along with players who give up their time at the end of very busy seasons to support senior Rugby in Lancashire. Its an absolute joy to be involved in this side of County rugby and one which I look forward to each season.

  • Portrait of a Bowbearer
    PORTRAIT OF A BOWBEARER William Bowland Richard Eastwood, the butcher’s son who became Bowbearer of the Forest of Bowland There have been Bowbearers of the Forest of Bowland since the twelfth century. Perhaps the most notorious of these being Nicholas Tempest who was hanged, drawn and quartered at Tyburn in 1537 for his part in the ill-fated Pilgrimage of Grace, the Catholic revolt against Henry VIII. Thomas Lister Parker (b. 1797) was among the more colourful. His lavish re- modelling of Browsholme Hall led to ruin and bankruptcy while he exploited local history, through his patronage of Thomas Dunham Whitaker, to inflate the glories of his ancestral line. To Lister Parker, we owe the myth of the hereditary Bowbearer – a right he claimed proudly and disingenuously right up to the time of his death in 1858 (his cousin having legally assumed the Bowbearership in 1820 at the time he purchased the Browsholme estate). 1 However, for much of its long history, the Bowbearership – an ancient ceremonial office bestowed upon an official who accompanied the Lord of Bowland hunting and literally bore his bow – has been a quiet affair, held by the heads of worthy local families and sometimes their sons: the Rawlinsons, the Listers, the Fenwicks. On two occasions only in nine hundred years do we see the office retained within families and across generations for any period of time: by the de Boltons in the twelfth, thirteenth and fourteenth centuries; and by the Parkers in the three centuries after the Restoration. Early Bowbearers appear to have been foresters in fee , holders of their own feudal lands within the Forest.

  • The Three Aims of the Week Are
    WHEN? Inter Faith Week 2017 will take place from Sunday 12 - Sunday 19 November. Inter Faith Week will usually begin on Remembrance Sunday, and run until the following Sunday. It is hoped that the additional Sunday will provide the opportunity for other weekend events to take place as well as those linked to Remembrance Sunday. WHAT? Inter Faith Week: Highlights the good work done by local faith, inter faith and faith-based groups and organisations Draws new people into inter faith learning and cooperation Enables greater interaction between people of different backgrounds Helps develop integrated and neighbourly communities Celebrates diversity and commonality Opens new possibilities for partnership WHY? Building good relationships and working partnerships between people of different faiths and beliefs is part of the year-round work of many people and organisations across the UK. Having a special Week provides a focal point, helping to open inter faith activity up to a wider audience so that more and more people are made aware of the importance of this vital work and are able to participate in it. THE THREE AIMS OF THE WEEK ARE: Strengthening good inter faith relations at all levels Increasing awareness of the different and distinct faith communities in the UK, in particular celebrating and building on the contribution which their members make to their neighbourhoods and to wider society Increasing understanding between people of religious and non-religious beliefs Date and Time Event Title Details Contact and Venue Saturday 11th November 2017 Saturday 11th Vegetarian Cooking and making Vegetarian Cooking and making friends St Matthew’s Avenham Mission, 117 Accregate Lane Nov 2017, friends (Preston) Preston, PR1 5QQ 18:00-21:00 Contact: [email protected] Sunday 12th November 2017 Sunday 12th Nov Remembrance Day service United Service of Remembrance, Blackburn Blackburn Cathedral, Cathedral Close, Blackburn BB1 5AA 2017, 09:30 (Blackburn) Cathedral, 9.30am.
