Lord Peter Smith Leader, Wigan Council
“The MMP team media project allows people like me to deliver important messages about Community Safety and the like to young people right at the heart of their Neighbourhood.
You were instrumental in breaking down barriers and encouraging young people to engage with not just your staff but other people like me who can sometimes find it more difficult to create an opportunity to provide our help, advice, information and education to a wider audience”
Gary Pilling Community Safety Officer
“I am delighted to write in support of the media bus initiative that operates throughout Wigan Borough. This
project works with children and young people through schools and directly in local communities. In some of these communities a significant number of the more difficult of our young people have been positively engaged
and have derived much benefit. The outcomes of the activities around the bus project are greatly valued
by the schools and by the communities where it operates.
The Council’s vision has several key objectives and your project hits at least two “building
strong communities” and “helping people reach their full potential”. Therefore I am pleased to give my personal support and endorsement.”
Jo Wiggans Director, Aimhigher, Greater Manchester
“…I am just writing to express my sincere thanks for your visit last week. The feedback from the conference delegates was overwhelmingly positive and all 59 feedback forms rated your project work as “excellent and very stimulating”
The work you put in to prepare was both impressive and very much appreciated! I just wanted to pass on my personal thanks for helping to make this years annual conference such a success!”
Chris Ready local Councillor
“The bus, combined with Tony’s activities and enthusiasm, has played a major role in the town particularly in the deprived areas bringing communities together. The feedback I have received from the local schools has been excellent”
