Welcome and Launch

Councillor Paul Dennett

Salford is growing - with a bold ambition to become a modern global city. Our greatest asset is our people and the rich diversity of our communities. We are committed to equality, giving everyone equal chances and opportunities to live and fulfil their potential in a city where everyone feels safe and respected. Together we will celebrate our diversity which is the spirit of Salford.
