Acton Bridge Community Association and Women's Institute jointly celebrated the completion of the refurbishment of the Parish Rooms on Friday 14th October. The hall was filled to its capacity of 100, and we were entertained by the Houghton Weavers (one of whom lives in Acton Bridge) and the traditional Lancashire fare of apple pie & cheese. We are very grateful to the Weavers - David Littler, Steve Millington and Tony Berry - for a superb show of great musicianship and humour, and to the many friends from the village who helped with the setting up and clearing afterwards. Funds were raised for ABCA and for the senior citizens' Christmas Party. Here is a link to the Houghton Weavers' website - click to see their other tour dates!

Acton Bridge is Runner-up in our Category in the Community Pride Awards for 2011. Many thanks to all those who do what they can to keep the village tidy, whether by litter-picking, keeping hedges and gardens tidy, or otherwise.
