For Salford, a magazine that's different. It's written and produced by people in Salford for people in Salford. And it's totally independent. The Salford Star just aims to give the community a voice, to make public bodies a bit more accountable and to inform, campaign and entertain.
We showcase what's ace in the City, dig up Real Salford Heritage, give new writers and artists a chance to express themselves, and get Salford celebs to contribute…But to make the Salford Star work, most of all we need your stories… Let us know what's going off in your neighbourhood…
If you've got an event coming up let us know… if you're launching a campaign let us know…if you're getting married let us know – we'll print your wedding photos free, plus your new baby photos…we'll also put your birth announcements and your memorial announcements in free…just get in touch…
We need help with writing, research, photography, graphics, selling ads, distribution and other general stuff. Please contact us and have a chat or e-mail us if you want to get involved – no experience necessary.
Meanwhile, if you've got a small business and like the mag please support it by advertising with us at our incredibly affordable rates. We are a not-for-profit company and any revenue is ploughed back into the mag to make it bigger and better and to print more copies. It's also a great way to reach the community direct.
The Salford Star is free and is delivered door-to-door in East Salford and to as many public places as possible throughout the City. We aim to roll it out door-to-door to the rest of Central Salford within the next 12 months, followed by the whole city in following years.
The Salford Star is a total first for the city – it's never had its own independent magazine before. If you want to see it survive please support us and help us get it together
