Today, Monday 26th July, Clitheroe Youth Forum has been named as a finalist in the 'Best Heritage Project Category' of the National Lottery Awards 2010. The awards recognise the amazing work being done by lottery-funded groups across the UK. The aim is to highlight the significant difference that projects - both large and small - make to communities everywhere and to celebrate the achievements of the people behind them.
The Clitheroe Youth Forum aims to teach young people about their heritage by involving them in the creation of a Remembrance Book, a Braille Book, a website and a film to remember the 72 service men and one woman from the town of Clitheroe who were killed in World War Two.
To vote for the Clitheroe Youth Forum project call 0844 686 5959 or visit www.lotterygoodcauses.org.uk/awards. The winners will be announced 4th September on a live programme on BBC One.
