We've launched "SQCF Communications" on Facebook. This is our formal communication channel, with a somewhat different remit to our existing Salford Quays Community Forum page (which continues).
If you live/work at the Quays/MediaCityUK then you are entitled to join either/both.
We already knew all of this, but it is great to see it appearing in print.

We're running our election hustings again this year, but so far can't get hold of the Conservative candidate for the Quays Ward - Dan Swift. Can anyone put us in touch?

The full story of the fight to save prime waterfront from an outcome determined by an asleep-on-the-job planning committee.
it gives us renewed hope that we can influence future outcomes on the Quays.

This is an enormously important victory for the quays, even though Ralli Quays is not part of the Quays. Had this battle been lost then it could have set a precedent for building over our prime waterfront.
VICTORY! We saved access to #OurIrwell, stopped the towpath at Ralli Quays being stolen + diverted thru a hotel. The urban right to roam matters, so does our industrial heritage + access to nature, active travel and public space. THANKS to all for support tinyurl.com/4yfexteu

An offender who targeted members of the public at Exchange Quay tram stop for several weeks by riding past them and snatching their phones, has been detained by #GMPTransportUnit this evening. The male shown wanted x 7 for several other serious crimes.
We seem to have had a huge outbreak of abandoned trolleys. We've found or been advised of 10 in the last week. All have been reported and some already removed. If you need to report one, please use this service:

We've clearly become a holiday destination for supermarket trolleys on the Quays - five have arrived in the last 5 days. We've reported them all. Two are already gone and before and after pics are shown.
We don't hang around!

Some days we work on the big strategic stuff, other days we just sort out the small stuff.
Yesterday, with trolley and rubbish. Today, without.
We note that Salford isn't on the list of boroughs where charging won't happen, which implies that it could happen here. We would like to learn more about what this means for our members who live in and around the Quays/MediaCityUK.
NEW: Andy Burnham says the government has asked Greater Manchester to model a Clean Air Zone WITH charges in the city centre. But he says it's agreed that there is no need for charges in Bolton, Bury, Oldham, Rochdale, Stockport, Trafford, Tameside and Wigan #LDReporter
