WHAT'S IN THURSDAY'S CHRONICLE

A daughter has accused Oldham Council of putting elderly lives at risk as the cost of her mother's helpline response service is set to rise by 122 per cent. We have the details.

Also, we report on an airlift drama as a youngster was involved in an accident with a car in the Coppice area.

And we round up last night's Oldham Council meeting which produced heated debate over a council- tax rise.

On the sporting front, Latics turn their attentions to much-need League One points, while amateur RL teams are gearing up for the start of their season. We have a two-page preview special.
