PLEASE HELP, WE NEED YOU, BLOCK THE BLOCK!

Lets fight for our home Hulme, and fight back against the developers set to diminish the quality of life for people already struggling in the local area.

Stand with us to #BlockTheBLock! #Manchester #hulme

Please watch this poem and film by Christopher Finnegan, about the isolation felt by older communities regardless of a pandemic.

Congratulations to our participants of Balcony Bingo yesterday that won the raffle and the bingo.

Someone asked if we were giving away a trip to Devon,

We said we were all out, but had some lovely spangled coasters. #BalcoBingo #Community #Togetherness #Manchester #Hulme
