Last week our client @navigatorsap opened their brand new community hub in Wythenshawe, bringing their specialised alternative education provision to another incredible community in South Manchester ❤️📚

We’ve loved being a part of Navigators’ journey over the past two years, and it’s brilliant to see this amazing organisation grow.

The hub was officially opened by Lord Mayor Councillor Paul Andrews, with a whole host of sector leaders & professionals in attendance for the launch organised by team SH Comms 🙌🏻

As well as being a place for alternative education provision, the new learning hub will also provide employment skills, learning development and be a hub for the community… you can read all about it in the @mcrconfidential feature via the 🔗 in bio 🙌
