AUTOS BLACKPOOL LTD Stephen Hughes
A&P Autos (Blackpool) Ltd was established in October 2012 and was previously known as A&P Mobile Mechanic. Stephen Hughes the owner and founder worked solely from his van and covered the fylde coast providing break down and repairs at customer’s homes or places of work. In his van he carried all his tools and equipment to deal with the everyday problems and maintenance of all modern day cars. Stephen spent the 1st part of his career working for a Vauxhall main dealer, served his apprenticeship and built the skills to deal with modern vehicles and the technology involved with modern day cars and vans. Steve and his highly qualified staff have moved forward quickly in the development of A&P Autos. They moved into the premises on Common edge road (opposite the shovels pub) in November 2012 and are constantly striving to develop the business further to serve their customers, having recently become an MOT testing station and even more recently they have had an Air con machine installed. Steve and his friendly team run a family orientated garage and have a very good reputation around the Blackpool and Fylde coast area. This is proven by the customers who used Steve in the early days now travel from as far as Cleveleys, Fleetwood and Lytham to their south shore base for the high level quality, honest and friendly service they provide.

The new shop was where John Harper and Fred Pye first met and worked together 40 years ago. Over the last 29 years since inception, Harper & Pye has built a first class reputation for the supply and installation of quality carpets, curtains and fitted bedrooms. No job is too small or too large. We do a lot of domestic and contract work like the Grand Theatre Blackpool which we have carpeted twice throughout in 1992 and again in 2007.

Community Watch Schemes Nowadays it’s not just about Neighbourhood Watch there’s lots of other Watch Schemes to be involved in if there is a need in your area, such as: Hotel, Farm, Horse, Shop, Caravan, Pub, Church, Canal, Rural and Allotment Schemes. You may wonder why it’s a good idea to be involved in Neighbourhood Watch and other Community Watch Schemes. The reason is that they work by bringing people closer together, build a stronger community spirit, help to reduce crime, reduce the individual’s anxieties about crime by education and prevention, strengthen links with the local Neighbourhood Policing Team, develop closer relationships with local councils, improve the local environment and create a better quality of life. If you are interested in starting up a Watch Scheme then please contact Sue Blackburn, Watch Liaison Officer, Lancashire Constabulary, Bonny Street, Blackpool – telephone 01253 604134 or email: susan.blackburn@lancashire. pnn.police.uk for further details.
