Pictures of Salford in lockdown will help the homeless, a kids holiday camp and neglected animals

A dozen photographs taken of a deserted city during lockdown will benefit three charities. The images capture nature's beauty, the renaissance of the docks, and a rich architectural heritage. But they are all devoid of people.

The neon lights of MediaCity; blossom-heavy trees outside a church, wetlands offering protection against flooding and a service-station for wading birds and the historical gem which is Ordsall Hall are featured. They are in the first ever Ceremonial Mayor’s charity calendar. The photographs were taken across Salford by fellow councillor Heather Fletcher and other members of the charity committee.

All proceeds from the £9.99 calendar will go to her charity appeal which this year is supporting Salford Loaves and Fishes, Salford Children’s Holiday Camp and Animals in Distress in Irlam.
