Maybe when the windfarm on Oswaldtwistle Moor is up and running they will be able to spare some of the £2.5 million that they are expecting to receive, although why this money is being given to Prospects to do with what they want is a mystery to me.

I think the idea is that to compensate for 'defacing' Oswaldtwistle moors they are giving money back to an environmental charity that benefits the whole borough.
Although I am part of the Rishton Prospects group the actual allocation of money from the main pot is nothing to do with me and I'm not even sure whether they have had any money yet.
