Not being funny, but what's wrong with ROL? Does everything you're aiming to do, albeit more widespread, but very well.

But good luck, anyway.

Thanks for the comment, there is nothing wrong with ROL, just wanted to create something more specific to Bacup as out of all the towns within Rossendale it seems to be the one that is left out and gets bad press, ie no Christmas tree and poor lights!

The ones in Stacksteads are there all year round.

I think if you ask anyone from a small part of Rossendale, they will tell you that their part feels left out..
