Organisers have been working for months raising money and getting some top attractions for Lower Broughton's Family Fun Day on Sunday 5th August.

The day, at Green Grosvenor Park on Clarence Street will see a live wrestling show, exhibitions from Salford Aces Morris Dancers and Urban Angels Street Dancers, a free Zumba class, a performance by Barrington the magician, plus donkey rides, fair rides discounted to 50p, a bouncy castle, face painting and loads of stalls.

"We've worked hard as we want this to be a great local community event" says Keri Muldoon, who has organised the Friends of Grosvenor Park Fun Day with Lee Shannon 

"We have tried to keep everyone local, from the travellers with the food and rides, to the three local dance groups, to Dan's Ices and lots of stalls put on by organisations including the Broughton Trust, Salford City Leisure and Salford Healthy Start" she adds.

"Local people and shops have also contributed...Lauren Louise on the makeovers, Ange for the Candy Cart, Matchsticks for the cake, Nisa, Kay's Chemist...we even got a bottle from MP Graham Stringer!" she reveals "Local organisations Salix, Seddon, Aconnaly and Whitakers have also donated, while the local community has helped to raise over £400 on football cards to put towards this event.

"I just hope the weather is fine then everything else will be fine" she says "I am nervous and so excited as this is the first event me and Lee have done. I've had some experience but it's not like doing the real thing and being the boss! We have lots of good friends in this community who will help to make this a great day, so make sure it's in your diary...."

With virtually everyone in Lower Broughton contributing to the Fun Day it can't fail to be spectacular. There should be something for everyone and is not to be missed...

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.

We are almost at the final closure of the Salford Star but we write this article as a warning to others who may follow on the pitfalls of founding a genuine publication that aims to give the community a voice and hold public bodies up to account. 

They will try to discredit you, block information and shut you down. In South America they just blow up the offices of journalists that don't play the game. Here they just financially assassinate you...

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.
