Another year. Wow. Congratulations Debbie and team.
Wonderful event to celebrate @SouthwayHousing @GreenFlagAward flag raising for the Barlow Hall site. Huge thanks to urban ranger Debbie Wallace & local volunteers for year round hard work to keep these green spaces looking brilliant & a bio diverse haven for wildlife 🐞🕷️ 🐝

Thank you Nick, Tricia and MHPP members for your kind words. MHPP is a great housing partnership that makes a big impact and it has been a pleasure to be the chair. Impressed today with all the joint work and new ideas. Very best wishes for your future. @SouthwayHousing

We know we can end homelessness. Just like making the perfect cup of tea, we just need the right ingredients ☕ As the election approaches, we need politicians to step up. Tell party leaders you want them to commit to ending homelessness now: campaigns.crisis.org.uk/page…

If you fancy a gentle stroll around Old Moat or a longer trek through South Manchester, get your walking boots on. There are six great walks to choose from as part of the GM walking festival-no need to book-turn up and enjoy a free ice cream at the end.

Thankyou MHPP it’s been a great role. The strength of MHPP is its 18 RP members working together with MCC and all the Our Manchester partners, with the 100’s of hours that our member colleagues give to shared priorities. @SouthwayHousing @ManCityCouncil
A huge thank you and congratulations to our Chair @KarenIMitchell who is stepping down this week after chairing the Partnership for 8 years since it started in 2016. At our last Forum meeting her leadership and achievements were recognised. She will be a hard act to follow.
