St Mary's ward is densely populated and suburban in character. According to 2001 census the population of St Mary Ward was 11,160 while the total resident of Trafford being 211,180. Since July as Local Project Manager for AFSL I am involved in promoting sustainable way of life through attending events, community meetings and house to house visit. The baseline survey/ community consulation through house to house visit has helped me to understand my community's view on sustainabilty and have clearer idea in which area to focus. I would like to promote economical use of water through connection of water meter and being aware of how we use potable water ecomically at household level. I am also interested to promote waste minimization through composting , recyling and reduction of waste. Through the community consultaions we found that the community has a good awareness/experience about recycling but need encouraging on reduction and composting of waste.
