Heron spotted in a Redbricks garden this morning!
We have an amazing selection of birds who visit the estate but we've not seen a Heron before.

We were thrilled to hear we have received funding thanks to the second round of the government’s #CultureRecoveryFund so that Z-arts can continue to be here for you and #HereForCulture.

Manchester council's climate scrutiny shakeup 'tokenistic', say environmental campaigners

"the officer has materially misled the members on a matter bearing upon their decision"

Needs to be an independent investigation that asks:

a) did the planning officer purposefully mislead councillors?

b) were they instructed to by a senior councillor?

@InvisibleMapper @TreesNotCars @gmhousingaction @saveNIgreen @ryebankfields @XRebellionUK @stocksyatlarge Slightly different to some of the above as it's a road but the project went ahead while objections were in place. The objections are STILL in place. Have been due to go to court for over a year. But project allowed to go ahead anything. Which I think it's maybe a bit illegal.

[The Redbricks @redbricksonline]

@InvisibleMapper @TreesNotCars @gmhousingaction @saveNIgreen @ryebankfields @XRebellionUK @stocksyatlarge Would be interesting to look into PM roundabout too. We were told it was designed to reduce pollution but no modelling seemed to have been done. We kept asking for proof it would actually improve air near us.
The 'green' bits like replanting trees haven't been done.

Children in #Hulme, #OldTrafford & #MossSide have received School Holiday parcels this week.

Pictured are the Hulme drop off & a sneek peek at the magazines we included from @camsciencecntr !

We want local families to thrive & that means having more than just the basics.

Across Manchester people are rising up against the city's planning regime.

Amazing victory. Solidarity to Trees Not Cars from Block the Block! ✊✊✊

Hulme says no. Block the block!

[Hulme Community Garden Centre @HulmeCgardenC]

These glowing stems belong to a rather fancy member of the spider plant family, and is similarly easy to look after. Also arrived on #houseplantthursday are some aloes with huge flower buds, calatheas that appear to be hand painted, and jasmines full of gorgeous scent.

HULME SAYS NO.

BLOCK THE BLOCK.
