1. No one should struggle to stay warm this winter.
Libraries are warm and welcoming spaces, so call in for a chat, to get advice and get online.
Stay as long as you want.

Can’t stress enough what an amazing charity Maggie’s is. Even if you don’t fancy listening to us blather on (and who could blame you?) buy a ticket and leave before we get going.
More news! Why not come to see the podcast live in Didsbury? It promises to be a great evening. Get your tickets from linktr.ee/ohbrothershow. We’ll see you down there!

It's another beautiful September day that reminds me of that fateful day. It is sad and scary that someone can be killed for no other reason than the colour of their skin. How to convey the fear that people of colour live with everyday.....
Today marks 38 years since 13-year-old #AhmedIqbalUllah was tragically killed in a racist attack at Burnage High School in Manchester. His death sparked a brave campaign by his family, leading to the 1988 Macdonald Report, which confirmed racism played a key role in the murder.
