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.

    Millington, Steve and Roberts, Gareth and Steadman, Chloe and Parker, Cathy and Quin, Simon and Ntounis, Nikos (2019) Vital and Viable With- ington. Project Report. Institute of Place Management. Downloaded from: https://e-space.mmu.ac.uk/626241/ Version: Published Version Publisher: Institute of Place Management Please cite the published version https://e-space.mmu.ac.uk Vital and Viable Withington October 2019 – V2 Foreword There are a number of structural developments currently impacting traditional retail and district centres in the UK, such as the growth in out-of-town and online retailing. However, whilst much research focuses on reversing the fortunes of city and town centres, the project on which this report is based revolves around better understanding how to improve the vitality and viability of Manchester’s smaller district centres- including Withington. Based on secondary data, a primary audit of Withington, meetings with Withington’s Neighbourhood Manager and community partnership, a workshop with 40 local stakeholders, and footfall data, this report explores Withington’s activity patterns, in relation to the IPM’s ‘footfall signature types’. It also outlines the centre’s key strengths and weaknesses by drawing upon the IPM’s ‘Top 25 Factors’. It concludes by detailing what stakeholders in Withington can do going forwards to improve its vitality and viability, in relation to the IPM’s ‘4Rs’ framework. About the Institute of Place Management The Institute of Place Management is the professional body for people involved in making, maintaining and marketing places. As part of Manchester Metropolitan University, the Institute of Place Management is dedicated to supporting people who serve places, providing them with unbiased research, continuing professional development, qualifications, conferences, events and networking opportunities.

  • '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.
