Connect with others in similar situations: •If you’re part of a group of people who are all self-isolating, group updates on your situation could also act as an informal support network. •You could join a peer support community like Side by Side. •If ​ ​ you're going online more than usual or seeking peer support on the internet, it's important to look after your online wellbeing: online mental health. ​ ​ ● Manchester Cares. As the City, and country, goes into a further state of lockdown, we ​ continue to support older neighbours from across Manchester to feel connected, in what is already a disconnecting time. It's a time filled with worry and uncertainty, and whilst we all look to get on with ‘life as normal’ as best we can, let's keep sticking together and spending time with one another virtually and over the phone.

  • Hulme, Moss Side and Rusholme Neighbourhood Mosaic Profile
    Hulme, Moss Side and Rusholme Neighbourhood Mosaic Profile Summary • There are just over 21,300 households in the Hulme, Moss Side and Rusholme Neighbourhood. • The neighbourhood contains a range of different household types clustered within different parts of the area. Moss Side is dominated by relatively deprived, transient single people renting low cost accommodation whereas Hulme and Rusholme wards contain larger concentrations of relatively affluent young people and students. • Over 60% of households in Moss Side contain people whose social circumstances suggest that they may need high or very high levels of support to help them manage their own health and prevent them becoming high users of acute healthcare services in the future. However, the proportion of households in the other parts of the neighbourhood estimated to require this levels of support is much lower. This reflects the distribution of different types of household within the locality as described above. Introduction This profile provides more detailed information about the people who live in different parts of the neighbourhood. It draws heavily on the insights that can be gained from the Mosaic population segmentation tool. What is Mosaic? Mosaic is a population segmentation tool that uses a range of data and analytical methods to provide insights into the lifestyles and behaviours of the public in order to help make more informed decisions. Over 850 million pieces of information across 450 different types of data are condensed using the latest analytical techniques to identify 15 summary groups and 66 detailed types that are easy to interpret and understand. Mosaic’s consistent segmentation can also provide a ‘common currency’ across partners within the city.

The Victoria Park, Manchester, had its begin­ nings, partly in a town-planning scheme, which was far ahead of its time, and for which the City may now well be thankful, and partly as a gamble. Of the gamble more will be said shortly. The name was chosen in the reign of William IV, while the Princess Victoria was heiress presumptive to the throne and evidently in honour of the future Queen. The Park arose out of the desire of certain wealthy inhabitants to reside in a quiet area well away from the bustle of their business in Manchester itself.

    æ HOBBY JOURNAL Your personal guide to social activities in Manchester. For the over- 50 s The Social Directory INTRODUCTION TO THE HOBBY JOURNAL Did you know that commissioners of health services in Manchester have been working with voluntary and community groups on projects for older people in the city? The aim is to help people in their 50s and over to stay involved in hobbies and social groups so they don’t feel isolated, which can have a big impact on physical and mental health. The groups offer a wide range of recreational ideas and are also a way of making friends and easing loneliness. Manchester’s three Clinical Commissioning Groups have given grants to 29 projects across Manchester to provide all the social outlets listed in this booklet. Each listing contains a summary of the project and contact details.
