Peter Bennett (Unregistered User) What has happened to the Warden Service?
East Manchester Neighbourhood Wardens used to be seen patrolling the streets of Beswick, Clayton and Openshaw on a daily basis 12 hour a day They could be seen in the local Advertiser and some times on the Eastserve site, letting you know what they were planning to do next. People of the area were happy to know they were about and felt safer knowing they were about.
All this seems to have changed since management was given to Eastlands Homes. They now seem no existant
Have they been disbanded?

OMG peter hi, i hope they haven't been disbanded because the neighbourhood warden service was brilliant. it took us ages to properly understand what they did, but once it sunk in then what a difference for the better they made.
i know they've changed uniforms and i believe some changes have had to be made for funding reasons, and i'm sure most of the wardens only do the job cos they still have the urge to help the community in their hearts. they were a definite asset to our area and if they have been disbanded for any reason, i think we all should get a petition going to get them back!
it would be nice if someone from eastlands would update and clarify the situation don't ya think??
