Fiona Gardens in Sale Manchester is a development of 71 apartments for those over the age of 55.

It's been built by the Trafford Housing Trust close to where Fiona lived.

She was killed while on duty with the Greater Manchester police force just over two years ago.

Today is the second anniversary of the 32 year old's funeral.

Her family has been closely involved in the housing project and a commemorative stone, laid by Fiona’s parents and sister, has been placed at the entrance to the building to honour her bravery.
