Greater Manchester Police is launching a major operation that will see up to 50 officers and PCSOs a day on the streets to help prevent students becoming victims of crime.
Police in Manchester, Salford and Bolton will work alongside councils and universities to keep students safe by carrying out covert operations to catch thieves operating in student areas, high visibility patrols in hot spot areas, video cameras will be used to gather intelligence and known offenders of student crime will be targeted. PCSOs will also visit the homes of students who live in vulnerable areas to carry out crime prevention surveys and provide advice.
Officers will deliver safety talks to welcome new students to the city and urge them to become more security savvy. While other students will be shown a short film, featuring GMP officers, Manchester students and ex-offenders, about how to keep themselves and their property safe. Letters will also be sent home to parents of students to encourage them to keep an eye on their safety.
Chief Superintendent Stuart Barton, heading up operation Student Safe, said: “Greater Manchester is a fantastic place for people to study and we want to welcome new and returning students. However, many students become so busy enjoying their new lives that they forget personal safety issues, so we’re here to help them.
“There are a small number of predatory offenders who specifically target students, but we aim to stay one step ahead of them to stop them in their tracks.
“Policing operations will take place throughout the academic year and Neighbourhood Policing Teams will be on hand to ensure that students know how to protect themselves and their property. The on-campus teams will also hold police surgeries to deal with the concerns of the university students.
“However, there are some really simple steps that students can take to protect themselves from becoming a victim of crime - while out and about, stick to well-lit areas, stay in groups, pace your drinks and keep valuables such as phones and MP3 players out of sight.
“At your student accommodation, make sure that doors and windows are locked, even when you are in, and remember to set the alarm. If you’re going out at night, leave a light on to give the impression someone is home.”

Poster-sized aviation photos decorate the exterior of the small airport that serves Ålesund, Norway, and the surrounding region. As a life-long plane spotter, I couldn´t resist photographing the photos.
======================
A fellow plane nut has offered the following information about this aircraft:
"This is my repaint of Braathens LN-SUB which served from 1961 to 1971. It was the first DC-6 Braathens operated, and was flown all throughout the world later on after being sold. "
"In January of 1996, the aircraft was sold to Everts Air Cargo in Fairbanks Alaska. Under the tail number N151 it continued to fly for 23 years until the present day. During the spring, the aircraft is retireing from the heavy cargo flying of Alaska, and plans are to fly it back to Norway where it hopefully can be restorted to its passanger-flying era. Either way this plane has a lot of history and is hopefully returning to my local airport soon, nearly 40 years later. "

Braathens ASA, until 1997 Braathens South American & Far East Airtransport A/S and trading as Braathens SAFE, was a Norwegian airline which operated from 1946 until it merged with Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) in 2004 to become SAS Braathens.
For most of its history, Braathens was the largest domestic airline in Norway, but did not operate an international network for many years. Its main hubs were Oslo Airport, Fornebu and later Oslo Airport, Gardermoen, and briefly Stockholm-Arlanda Airport.
The airline operated 118 aircraft of 15 models, the majority of which having been variations of the Boeing 737. Braathens served 53 airports and 50 cities with scheduled services through its history.
The airline was founded in 1946 by Ludvig G. Braathen and originally used a fleet of Douglas DC-4 aircraft on routes to the Far East and South Africa.
From 1954 the airline was forced to operate all its scheduled flights domestically, where it used de Havilland Herons.
Braathens SAFE retained an international charter service using the DC-3 and DC-6. As new domestic airports were built, Braathens SAFE and SAS were awarded each their share of monopoly route concessions.
The Fokker F-27 was introduced in 1958, but was phased out with the delivery of the Fokker F-28 and Boeing 737-200 jets from 1969. The last F-27 was phased out in 1975. After a two-year use of Boeing 767 aircraft, Braathens operated an all-Boeing 737 fleet from 1986.
Increased domestic competition on routes started from 1987, along with Braathens SAFE again starting international routes.
By 1994 the fleet had been replaced with Boeing 737-400 and -500 and domestic deregulation of the airline market was introduced.
Braathens followed up by listing itself on the Oslo Stock Exchange, joining an alliance with Dutch airline KLM and expanding its operations to Sweden through purchasing Transwede and Malmö Aviation.
The 1998 opening of Gardermoen resulted in an intense price war with SAS and Color Air, from which Braathens never recovered financially. Braathens was controlled by Braganza until 2001, when it was sold to the SAS Group. Braathens merged with SAS Norway on 1 May 2004.

Greater Manchester Police has launched a major operation that will see more than 50 officers a day, alongside Manchester City Council and university staff carry out a number of tactics to tackle student-related crime.
Statistics show that 1 in 10 students will become a victim of crime while studying in Manchester, so this operation aims to ensure the 70,000 students descending on universities across the city have a safe and enjoyable experience.
"Greater Manchester is a fantastic place for people to study and we want to welcome new and returning students. However, many students become so busy enjoying their new lives that they forget personal safety issues.
"We understand that crime prevention will not be one of their top priorities, but unfortunately some criminals do see students as easy targets. In particular, over the last three years, 16 per cent of burglaries within the city of Manchester involved students," said Chief Superintendent Russ Jackson heading up the operation.
"We will be doing everything in our power to prevent students becoming victims of crime by working with the universities to provide students with advice on keeping themselves and their property safe and ensuring those responsible are caught and brought to justice."
Over the coming months Operation Safe Return will see GMP working alongside Manchester City Council and staff at each university carrying out high-profile patrols on foot, bicycles and in vehicles, targeting the main hotspot areas.
Video cameras will be used to gather intelligence and known offenders of student crime will be targeted. PCSOs will be visiting the homes of students who live in vulnerable areas to carry out crime prevention surveys and provide advice.
Officers will also deliver face-to-face talks to welcome new students to the city and urge them to become more security savvy. While other students will be shown a DVD, including information about how to keep themselves and their property safe.
Chief Superintendent Russ Jackson continues: "There are some really simple steps that students can take to protect themselves becoming a victim of crime. Our advice is that while out and about, you should keep to well-lit areas, stay in groups and keep valuables such as phones and MP3 players out of sight.
"At your student accommodation, make sure that doors and windows are locked - even when you are in and remember to set the alarm. If you're going out at night, leave a light on to give the impression someone is home."
Cllr Jim Battle, Manchester City Council's Deputy Leader, said: "Manchester is a great city for students, and we want to send out a clear message that by sticking to a few simple steps, they can make sure they remain safe during their time here."
Posters advising students on how to stop themselves falling victim to robbery and burglary will be displayed around the university campus' and in the residential areas. Crime prevention messages will also be displayed on lamppost banners down the Oxford Road corridor.
Students are also encouraged to register their valuables on www.immobilise.com. It's a quick, easy and free way of logging the details of your property on a national database that police can access and compare against items that have been found or recovered from suspected criminals.

Chief Inspector Laura Marler outside the Safe Haven venue.
A new initiative to provide support to people in need on a night out has been launched in Manchester city centre.
The Safe Haven has been developed by Greater Manchester Police, Manchester City Council, Greater Manchester’s Police and Crime Commissioner and other partners.
Based at the Nexus Art Café at Dale Street it is designed to reduce the demand on frontline services by assisting those people who become vulnerable and require the support of others to ensure they are safe and can get home after being out and about in the city following a night out.
It is supported by regular officers, special constables, Manchester Street Angels and the LGBT Foundation Village Angels. The centre will act as a place of safety and a hub for police to provide care, advice and assistance for anyone who attends. Water and hot drinks will be provided and visitors to the café will receive support to help them arrange to get home.
Chief Inspector Laura Marler who is coordinating the Safe Haven scheme said: “Weekend nights in the city centre is a busy time for all partners including police. This initiative is to ensure our most vulnerable members of the community are protected, we can reduce the demand on our frontline services and the number of incidents of violent crime and ensure those visiting the city can enjoy their night safely.”
Councillor Pat Karney, Manchester city centre spokesman, said: “Manchester is famous for its nightlife and tens of thousands of people come into the city centre every weekend to experience enjoyable and safe nights out. However, there will always be people who are feeling vulnerable in any large city centre on a Friday and Saturday night and the Safe Haven scheme will provide somewhere they can go without having to approach the emergency services directly.”
Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner Jim Battle said: “This safe haven will enhance the valuable work done by our emergency services, door staff and army of volunteers from the LGBT Foundation Village Angels, Manchester Street Angels who are out every weekend to keep people safe in our city centre.
“The safe haven will provide a place for people to chill out, perhaps recharge their phone, get support and ultimately get home safely.
“It will help to make sure that our police are freed up to keep our city’s streets safe, but most importantly it will mean people who could fall victim to crime are able to keep out of harm’s way.
“I hope this scheme is a success as it demonstrates how the emergency services, venues, charities and volunteers are all working together to make our city a fantastic place.”

As a designer, I believe that everyone has a story to tell. In my work I want to visually share those stories to open up conversations that can change the perspective of those looking from the outside in on one's experience.

with every word, I live again
through the eyes of another
we'll meet at night wet from the rain
and surprise each other
with how we take away the pain
could you be the one to find me safe and sound?
love is how it's lost, not how it's found
I dont know those eyes, but I see beauty there, always
I know its wrong to love you from afar, but it's a craze
you recognize my pain
could you be the one to find me safe and sound?
love is how it's lost, not how it's found
love is how it's lost, not how it's found
you take away my pain
could you be the one to find me safe and sound?
love is how it's lost, not how it's found
love is how it's lost, not how it's found
oh, I'll take away your pain
could you be the one to find me safe and sound?
love is how it's lost, not how it's found
love is how it's lost, not how it's found
love is how I'm lost, not how I'm found.
