Together Action Areas
On 18 February 2005, Salford became one of fifty nationwide Together Action
Areas. Together is a national campaign to prioritise and tackle anti-social
behaviour and put the needs of the community first.
This week the government has started an advertising campaign within Salford to
publicise a phone line “It’s your call” 0845 605 2222. Any resident of the city can
use this phone line to report incidents of antisocial behaviour.
What will the Together campaign do?
 We are sending out the clear message to people in Salford that we are taking
anti-social behaviour seriously
 We are encouraging the people of Salford to work with us and play a part in
stopping antisocial behaviour, by reporting incidents
 We will be ensuring that the public can see that Salford City Council and partners
are working together to stop anti-social behaviour
 We want to show the positive outcomes of what we do so that the public can see
the benefits of the activities and that “playing a part” has value - so we will be
publicising successes locally
How can you play a part?
We want you to help us spread our messages:
 We will not tolerate anti-social behaviour
 Anti-social behaviour can be reported on a new national phone line
0845 605 2222
 We want the support of the community to put power back in the hands of the lawabiding majority
 Its up to local people to take a stand, make that call, and make a difference
