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.

  • Ardwick Exhibition Size 3 MB
    -of~6ij disabledlition people­ GMCDP Introduction: In 2006 Greater Manchester Coalition of Disabled People ran a project to record the experiences and memories of Deaf and Disabled People from Ardwick, Manchester. The history of people's everyday lives is often overlooked when past experiences are recorded. However, the lives of deaf and disabled people are almost totally ignored and largely undocumented. The Ardwick People's History Project aims to change this and the exhibition is part our contribution to that process. The following panels are selected extracts from the interviews we conducted over the summer.

  • 'After Housing Costs' Child Poverty Rate from Highest to Lowest
    Notes: This spreadsheet ranks wards in Greater Manchester by their 'after housing costs' child poverty rate from highest to lowest. This is done using data published by End Child Poverty in 2019. The data also ranks areas based on the proportion of the population in a ward classified as black and minority ethnic (BAME) in census data. The higher the proportion of people who are BAME in a ward the higher the rank. This data shows that areas with the highest BAME populations in Greater Manchester are often the areas with the highest rates of child poverty.
