Gigg Lane Damage

Following conversations with GMP and Bury Council, we have raised concerns due to the increase in trespassers entering Gigg Lane, causing damage and disruption to #TheGiggCleanup.

Due to data protection, we cannot share the CCTV images and videos on social media but they will be circulated to the relevant parties so that they can identify the people involved.

Over the weekend the group of 4 (believed to be aged 11-18) broke into the toilet block and set off fireworks. They also smashed panels and damaged parts around the stadium.

The initial group left some documents with their names on and their school have been informed, so they will now deal with that on their return from the Easter break.

Bury Football Club Supporters Society and the benefactors would like to place on record a huge thank you to the army of over 1,000 volunteers who have supported us so far in cleaning and renovating Gigg Lane.

Gigg Lane is a huge community asset and will be accessible to community groups and businesses. It will bring much needed revenue into the town through matchdays and additional events, and have a positive impact on the whole of Bury.
