Last weekend Deputy Leader Shoab Akhtar (pictured below with volunteers) was made an honorary Street Angel for the night as he braved the rain until 2.30am to join volunteers in helping to make sure revellers had a safe night. The Oldham Street Angels were formed just over a year ago and work from a base on Yorkshire Street provided free of charge by a local businessman. Co-ordinator Rev Jean Hurlston said: “We’re not on patrol, we try to have a positive presence in the town centre, and we’re there because we care. Their work includes sweeping up broken glass, reuniting lost revellers with their friends, and handing out bottles of water and flip flops at the end of the evening.
