SECURITY FOR RESIDENTS OF M3

Three residents associations in the M3 areas of Greengate, Blackfriars, Trinity and Islington have been awarded £50,000 from the Government to improve security in houses and flats.

Anyone can just ring up and get free locks, chains and spy holes, plus alarm servicing and special DNA marking kits for property.

"We have one of the highest levels of burglaries in the whole of Salford and we're trying to reduce it with this grant" says Richard Critchley of Bridgewater Residents Association.

Full story here…


Three Salford residents associations - Vertical Villages, Bridgewater Residents Association and TIETARA – have got £50,000 to spend by the end of March on improving security in homes throughout the M3 postcode area.

Any residents who haven't got top standard door chains and locks, spy holes or window locks can now have them fitted free of charge, while the grant also covers free alarm checks and servicing.

"Residents can just ring up and free engineers will come out and improve alarms, locks, window locks and door chains" says Richard Critchley of Bridgewater Residents Association "The idea is just to make the community feel safer and more empowered in the area, and to reduce the level of burglaries.

"It's the highest quality alarms and some of the toughest locks you can get" he adds "So it really is worth it and it's completely free…"

Just ring 0161 790 6278 and quote `Safer Homes'

SALFORD STAR CLOSES AFTER 15 YEARS WITH ATTITUDE AND LOVE XXX

Star date: 17th May 2021

SALFORD STAR – 15 YEARS OF ATTITUDE AND LOVE XXX

The Salford Star closes tonight after 15 years of giving the community a voice, holding power to account and bigging up all the great things that have happened in the city.

Thousands of people in Salford have been involved in one way or another with the Star and we'd like to thank them all. Salford is a very special city and, hopefully, we've given it a very special community publication.

SALFORD STAR CLOSURE – GUY GRIFFITHS ON THE HUMAN COST OF PATHFINDER DEMOLITIONS

Star date: 16th May 2021

THE HUMAN COST OF REGENERATION

The Griffiths brothers of Higher Broughton are kind of infamous as the only people to be forcefully evicted from their house as part of the Pathfinder 'housing market renewal' project during the first decade of the 21st Century.

Here, Guy Griffiths, now living in 'sunny' north Wales and one of the main inspirations for the Salford Star's creation, writes the second part his own personal view of the Government project that devastated communities throughout Central Salford.
