Old Trafford

Celebrate Old Trafford

Old Trafford is a perhaps surprising hub of eco activity. Since beginning work in Old Trafford as one of its pilot areas, AfSL has discovered there are loads of residents that want to help make Old Trafford a Green and more Eco aware place to live.

Since 2005 AfSL has responded by encouraging such residents to meet up together and take action. WOWOT (War on Waste Old Trafford), Fair Trade Old Trafford and Old Trafford Trees = Clean Ayre were formed. A 'Shop Local' map produced and an energy project working with NEA and TMBC supplying 5 homes with solar thermal panels and wood burning stoves embarked on to name just a few.....

More than this people in Old Trafford have become steadily more aware of how they can live more sustainable lives.

Since 2005 we have:

  • Advised over 1000 individuals and 10 groups
  • Initiated 8 local Action Groups
  • In the year to the end of September 2006, AfSL helped people in Clifford Ward to make over 500 pledges to live more sustainably.
  • Involved over 50 volunteers in local projects.

Bob Walley, Local Project Manager Old Trafford

Bob Walley

Howdy!

My names Bob Walley and Im the new Local Project Manager for Old Trafford.

After wandering around the different streets in my area, Ive had loads of ideas for greener, safer more sustainable communities. The alleyways in our back yards are an amazing place to start, making them central hubs for our neighbourhoods. Hullard park is on our doorstep, and in my view is one of the nicest parks in , and Im looking forward to running events there in the sunshine!
