It embodies the unity of purpose shown by the community, City Council, private and public sectors in developing a strategy for transforming North Manchester into a diverse, high quality residential area with a strong economy and first class public services. There is a common understanding that this transformation will require, not only excellence and imagination in the delivery of public services particularly, but also commitment, quality and ambition from the private sector, particularly in the area of housing provision. This partnership of community, public and private sector organisations is essential in creating the best results for North Manchester. Our plans for the future respond to the regeneration potential of the area, its strong community and the inherent opportunities of its proximity to the city centre. It builds on the opportunities being developed through the Manchester Knowledge Capital initiative such as the growing city centre economy and the creation of the Central Business Park on the Oldham Road. The strategy stresses the importance of ensuring that the people of North Manchester have access to the opportunities afforded by the city and the wider region. However the strategy is very realistic and frank about its starting point. The future of North Manchester can only be built on firm foundations. For this to happen, we have to be open about the challenges across a broad spectrum of physical, social and economic issues in North Manchester. We have to bring forward an integrated strategy that recognises that failure to tackle any of these issues risks undermining the future of North Manchester and its communities. Therefore this strategy makes no apologies for airing the complex challenges of North Manchester. Likewise, we are determined to demonstrate our aspirations for the future and propose how we will achieve the change that the people of North Manchester and the wider city deserve. Importantly, positive change is already occuring, creating momentum, through projects such as the investment in the North City and Cheetham Shopping Centres, the new MANCAT 6th Form on Rochdale Road, the new M8 Manchester Fort retail park along Queens Road and the Central Business Park. We thank all those involved in the study for their input, time, energy and patience. We look forward to working together in the future to realise our shared vision for North Manchester.

  • 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.

  • From Manufacturing Industries to a Services Economy: the Emergence of a 'New Manchester' in the Nineteen Sixties
    Introductory essay, Making Post-war Manchester: Visions of an Unmade City, May 2016 From Manufacturing Industries to a Services Economy: The Emergence of a ‘New Manchester’ in the Nineteen Sixties Martin Dodge, Department of Geography, University of Manchester Richard Brook, Manchester School of Architecture ‘Manchester is primarily an industrial city; it relies for its prosperity - more perhaps than any other town in the country - on full employment in local industries manufacturing for national and international markets.’ (Rowland Nicholas, 1945, City of Manchester Plan, p.97) ‘Between 1966 and 1972, one in three manual jobs in manufacturing were lost and one quarter of all factories and workshops closed. … Losses in manufacturing employment, however, were accompanied (although not replaced in the same numbers) by a growth in service occupations.’ (Alan Kidd, 2006, Manchester: A History, p.192) Economic Decline, Social Change, Demographic Shifts During the post-war decades Manchester went through the socially painful process of economic restructuring, switching from a labour market based primarily on manufacturing and engineering to one in which services sector employment dominated. While parts of Manchester’s economy were thriving from the late 1950s, having recovered from the deep austerity period after the War, with shipping trade into the docks at Salford buoyant and Trafford Park still a hive of activity, the ineluctable contraction of the cotton industry was a serious threat to the Manchester and regional textile economy. Despite efforts to stem the tide, the textile mills in 1 Manchester and especially in the surrounding satellite towns were closing with knock on effects on associated warehousing and distribution functions.
