Why We Made This Guide
This booklet is part of Neighbourhood Moves: Local spaces. Local faces. Active places – a campaign from MCRactive and Manchester City Council to make being active easy, fun, and part of everyday life.
Our goal is simple: to empower our community to use the brilliant spaces we already have. Because getting active doesn’t always mean joining a gym – it can be as simple as exploring a local park, playing a kickabout, or going for a walk with a friend
