The Langworthy Cornerstone is the vibrant hub of the community and is a true partnership achievement, built using ERDF, SRB, Sure Start and PCT money.

Opened by Hazel Blears MP in 2001, the building is dedicated to the people who live and work in the community. It delivers local health & well being to employment training. The Cornerstone serves the community from morning to night and provides both a café and a crèche. It is envisaged the buildings activities will be governed by the local community in the future.

Archaeology with the community!

Hand with treasure

Archaeology with the community!
There is a new Research Centre for Applied Archaeology at the University of Salford (but based in the CUBE building on Portland Street in Manchester).

The work of the Centre includes involving people from local communities, helping them to learn more about the history of their locality, and the chance to be trained in archaeological techniques. This might also be an interesting way to encourage both physical activity and learning!

If any local community group or school wants to know more, or become involved in digging up the past, they should contact:

Mike Nevell (Head of Archaeology) m.d.nevell@salford.ac.uk or Brian Grimsditch (Community Archaeologist) b.grimsditch@salford.ac.uk

Smart City Futures

Time of Event: 
23/07/2009 09:00 - 18:23

Smart City Futures will begin new conversations that tap into the
unrealised potential of open innovation and effective collaboration
between Universities, Industry and Government

A lack of transparency and a silo mentality had resulted in an environmental, political and economic meltdown. 

Old models and accepted truths are becoming irrelevant and outmoded in a changing and connected world

New challenges call for new solutions

We
believe that Universities should act as a catalyst of change and have
decided to practice what we preach by trying something new

Spoof Interview with Professor Clever Cloggs on the Credit Crunch

Image for Spoof Interview with Professor Clever Cloggs on the Credit Crunch

As part of the Community reporters programme we took a copy of the Manchester Evening News and used it to see if there were any articles that we could follow up with a telephone interview. We found an article about laughter and the Credit Crunch and how it was affecting us all. There were some very 'interesting' facts in there as well as a quote from a Professor. The real Professor in the Story was naturally far to busy to give us an interview even though we found his phone number on his website. So we had to phone up someone to do a fake one instead.

Born To Perform

Born to Perform runs on Saturdays from 9-12 for children aged 7-16. We run for an average 12 week term and use up to 3 weeks for confidence building and technique and the remaining weeks working towards a performance shown back to family and friends on week 12.

The main difference between us and other fee paying stage schools is that we are affordable, most range from £260-300 per 12 week term - ours is £120 (this amounts to just £3.33 per hour). We are also not into promising stardom. We set realistic goals and maintain that the academy is about growing and development and not becoming famous.
