GMP welcomed Angela Eagle MP to Bury Town Centre on Wednesday morning to see the work being done in conjunction with the force’s blitz on ASB.
The Home Office Minister shadowed a local neighbourhood policing operation which comes as part of the department’s Safer Streets Summer Initiative – known as Safe4Summer in Greater Manchester.
This work comes as part of a dedicated crackdown on anti-social behaviour (ASB) in communities and town centres, providing greater visibility through direct work with partners in hotspot areas.
Numerous hotspots were identified through analysis of areas that have been repeat demand-generators in the force area, and compiled for specific targeting by teams.
The Minister discussed the work being done with representatives from the local council, their town centre security teams, Bury’s Chief Inspector, and the Superintendent across the initiative.
This included a walk through the heart of the town centre, a visit to a business and discussion about how officers enforce the appropriate legislation, along with a visit to the Sir Robert Peel Statue – the founder of modern British policing.
The Safe4Summer initiative has already seen great successes – including 239 arrests for offences including ASB, retail crime, and violent offences since its launch at the end of June.
In addition, there has been more than 1,000 stop-searches, and thousands of policing hours dedicated to the hotspots.
GMP has reaffirmed its commitment to strengthening our neighbourhood offer in recent years, including providing every district with a named local officer, implementing our community messaging service Bee In The Loop, and adding 176 officers to our neighbourhood ranks.
Home Office Minister, Dame Angela Eagle said: “We want high streets across the country to be places where people can feel safe, enjoy themselves and where local shops can succeed. This is why we have launched a summer blitz on crime in over 500 town centres nationwide, including in Bury.
“It was fantastic to see how Greater Manchester Police are working hard to deter shop theft, anti-social behaviour and other town centre crime across the region, and I want to pay my personal thanks to all the officers who protect our high streets.
"I was especially impressed with the exemplary work I saw going on in Bury to keep the high street safer, free of crime and antisocial behaviour. The local police with their partners are doing a great job.
“Through our Safer Streets Summer Initiative and our Neighbourhood Policing Guarantee, we’re putting officers back on our streets to do what they do best. We’re making our town centres safer with 3,000 extra neighbourhood officers and PCSOs in communities nationwide by next April.”
Superintendent Jen Kelly, from GMP’s Safe4Summer team, said: “We understand and acknowledge the frustrations that ASB can cause people as they go about their lives, and the Safer Streets Initiative is a project we are fully backing.
“Officers across every district are targeting hotspots the public has told us about, tackling everything from nuisance e-bikes to drug-dealing, street drinking, and more every single day.
“Their proactive approach over the summer months will be focusing on getting those people off the streets and engaging with our communities to enhance our knowledge on exactly where we are needed. We want to be able to reassure communities – from business owners to residents – that we are fully backing them and will help them wherever possible.”

Alfie is a 1966 British comedy-drama film directed by Lewis Gilbert and starring Michael Caine. The Paramount Pictures release was adapted from the 1963 play of the same name by Bill Naughton. Following its premiere at the Plaza Theatre in the West End of London on 24 March 1966, the film became a box office success, enjoying critical acclaim, and influencing British cinema.
The narrative follows a young, womanising man leading a self-centred life, focused on his own enjoyment until events force him to question his uncaring behaviour, his loneliness, and his priorities. Alfie cheats on numerous women, treating them with disrespect, using them for sex and domestic affairs. He frequently breaks the fourth wall, speaking directly to the camera, narrating and justifying his actions, despite broad contradictions.
Plot
Alfie Elkins, a handsome, self-centered, narcissistic Cockney chauffeur in London, enjoys the sexual favours of married and single women while avoiding commitment. He is ending an affair with Siddie, a married woman, just as he gets his submissive girlfriend, Gilda, pregnant. Alfie thinks nothing of pilfering fuel and money from his employer and tells Gilda to do the same. Although he refuses to marry her, and despite his constant cheating, Gilda decides to have the child, Malcolm Alfred, and keep him rather than give him up.
Over time, Alfie becomes quite attached to his son, but his unwillingness to marry Gilda causes her to break up with him and marry Humphrey, a kindly bus conductor and neighbour who loves her and is willing to accept Malcolm Alfred as his own. Gilda bars Alfie from any further contact with Malcolm, forcing him to watch from a distance as Humphrey steps into his fatherly role. When a health check reveals Alfie has tubercular shadows on his lungs, the diagnosis and his fear of death, combined with his separation from his son, lead him to have a brief mental breakdown.
Alfie spends time recuperating in a pastoral sanatorium, where he befriends Harry, a fellow patient, a family man devoted to his frumpy wife, Lily. Alfie seduces one of the nurses, disgusting Harry. When Alfie flippantly suggests that Lily might be cheating on him, Harry angrily confronts Alfie about his attitudes and behaviour.
Released from the convalescent home, Alfie briefly stops working as a chauffeur to take holiday photos of tourists near the Tower of London. He meets Ruby, an older, voluptuous, affluent and promiscuous American who, although accompanied by an older gentleman, gives him her address and telephone number.
Alfie returns to chauffeuring and drives a Rolls-Royce to the sanatorium to visit Harry. He finds Lily finishing a visit with her husband, who asks him to give his wife a ride back to London to save her an exhausting train ride. Neither initially wants to spend time together, but they agree in order to please Harry. Along the way, they stop for tea and then a canoe ride where Alfie seduces Lily.
Later, chauffeuring again, Alfie sees a young red-headed hitchhiker, Annie, who wants a fresh start in London. A lorry driver picks her up just before Alfie gets to her. He follows them to a cafe and steals her away to London. She moves into his bedsit where she proves preoccupied with a love left behind, scrubbing Alfie's floor, doing his laundry and preparing his meals to compensate. The lorry driver finds Alfie in a pub and punches him in the face, causing a bar brawl.
Coming home with a black eye, Alfie grows resentful of Annie and drives her out with an angry outburst, immediately regretting it. Around the same time, Lily informs him that she is pregnant from their one encounter, and they plan for her to have an abortion. Lily comes to his flat to meet the abortionist. During the procedure, Alfie leaves Lily and walks around. He catches sight of his son Malcolm outside a church and witnesses the baptism of Gilda and Humphrey's new daughter. The abortion traumatizes both Lily and Alfie; he breaks down in tears when seeing the aborted foetus, the first time he confronts the consequences of his actions.
Stressed by the situations with Annie and Lily, Alfie decides to change his non-committal ways and settle down with Ruby. However, visiting her, he finds a younger man in her bed. He comes across Siddie, but she has lost interest in him and returned to her husband. Alfie is left lonely, wondering about his life choices and the meaning of existence. A stray dog approaches him, and he takes it in his care as he walks off into the night.

Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy combines hypnosis with elements of CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) and mindfulness in order to help you create meaningful change in your life. We look at the interaction between your thoughts, feelings and behaviours to see what might be behind your unhelpful habits of body and mind.
This behaviour of the ringed plover is really fascinating when the grown ups pretend to be injured and try to draw the predator's attention away from their young giving them a fighting chance to make themselves invisible.
CBT works on the basic idea that we can live more effectively and happily if we are thinking and behaving in more helpful ways. (via Twitter twitter.com/kimfishercbt/status/716663727886614533)

Piccadilly - Safe4Summer.
The initiative is part of the Government’s mission to restore and strengthen local policing in communities and reduce or prevent anti-social behaviour (ASB). As part of this, there will be a greater visibility of Greater Manchester Police (GMP) officers and partners as we work together across crime hot spot areas.
Kate Green, Deputy Mayor for Safer and Stronger Communities, said: "We’re determined to ensure Greater Manchester is a safer place for everyone. The Safer Streets Summer Initiative is a testament to our dedication to reducing crime and enhancing the quality of life for our residents.
“By continuing to work closely with our communities and partners, we aim to create an environment where everyone feels safe and can enjoy not only the summer but all year round and every year. We’ll be working hard to ensure our town centres are safe and welcoming for all.”
Assistant Chief Constable Matt Boyle, GMP’s lead for Local Policing, said: “Our neighbourhoods are negatively impacted by various crimes such as the illegal use of e-bikes, drug dealing and other ASB.
“As a force, it’s our mission to listen to our community’s concerns and take action where crime is committed. Our proactive approach to tackling neighbourhood crime has meant that since 2021, we’ve reduced burglary by a third and vehicle crime by a quarter, thanks to the dedication of our local neighbourhood teams, working closely with partners across the region.
“Over the summer months, they will be focusing on increasing engagement with our communities to listen and respond to their concerns. Residents and business owners will also see an increase in the visibility of officers and partners, as we work together to ensure a safe summer for all. This isn’t about trying to spoil people’s fun over the summer months, it is making sure everyone can enjoy themselves without feeling unsafe or being hurt.
“We welcome the Home Office initiative, which perfectly aligns to the neighbourhood policing model our force implemented locally two years ago. Safe4Summer is the perfect opportunity to highlight the strength of our partnerships in Greater Manchester, and our determination to minimise crime and disorder and to ensure Greater Manchester is a safer and more desirable place for all.”
TravelSafe Partnership Manager at Transport for Greater Manchester, Kate Green, said: “While the vast majority of people using the Bee Network do so safely and responsibly, we know that crime and anti-social behaviour increases over school holidays, and that is not something we will tolerate.
“We work hard every day to keep people safe, whether that’s through our engagement programme or the many proactive operations that take place. We will have an increased presence across the Bee Network to prevent and deter incidents, helping people to travel and enjoy their summer safely and with confidence.”
In 2023, Greater Manchester Police made a commitment that every district ward has a named local police officer, and we would keep communities informed through our use of the community messaging service, Bee in the Loop, which provides the latest news on events and incidents straight to your email inbox.
In April 2025, we welcomed the opportunity to further strengthen our neighbourhood offer, with an increase in numbers of neighbourhood officers by 176, to help GMP to continue to deliver in tackling crime and working with partners and communities to keep our streets safe.
