FRIENDS of mine in the Halliwell district of Bolton have just had door and window locks fitted free through Bolton Council and the police, under a scheme called the Bolton Burglary Reduction Project.
This project is available to the whole of the Halliwell area, and is very successful in combating crime.
Just like the residents of Halliwell, we, the residents of Farnworth and other parts of Bolton, also pay council tax.
I was wondering if a spokesperson from the council could tell me whether or not there were any plans to extend the scheme to other vulnerable areas of the town.
