Today, we remember the 22 lives lost in the Manchester Arena attack and hold in our thoughts everyone affected by that day.

A moment that will remain part of Manchester’s story - and a reminder of the strength, compassion and togetherness shown across the city in its aftermath.

Manchester forever 💛

Exciting things are continuing to happen in Ancoats 👀

Following the success of Pollard Yard, Bromley Yard is set to bring over 250 new container studios to Manchester’s creative scene across multiple phases - creating new space for independent businesses, artists, musicians, makers and more.

Launching later this year, the first phase of Bromley Yard will introduce new studios, workshops, retail, food concepts and music spaces, continuing Meanwhile Creative’s vision of building community-led spaces for Manchester’s growing creative sector.

A brilliant addition for Ancoats and the city’s independent community 💙

Expressions of interest are now live via Bromley Yard.

A first look inside Jersey Wharf as the show home begins to take shape 🤩

Floor-to-ceiling windows, calm modern interiors, and a quieter canal side setting shaped by the rhythm of life in Ancoats.

As our sixth rental building in Ancoats and New Islington, Jersey Wharf will soon become part of a neighbourhood already shaped by community, local businesses, green spaces and life by the water.

With 1, 2 & 3 bedroom homes available to rent, we’re looking forward to welcoming new residents to this growing corner of Ancoats very soon.

🩵 Mental Health Awareness Week 2026 🩵

This year’s theme is Action - a reminder that even small steps can make a meaningful difference to our mental wellbeing and the impact we have on others.

Sometimes action looks like getting down to the marina, slowing down in a yoga class, checking on your neighbour, or volunteering your time or donating money to a local cause.

In Ancoats, there’s no shortage of ways to put those small actions into practice – plenty of shared spaces, local charities & familiar faces to connect with.

This week is a reminder to take care of yourself - and each other 💙

If you need support, and many other organisations are always here to help.

🏭 National Mills Weekend 2026
 
A reminder of the history woven through Ancoats - where mills, canals and industry shaped not only the neighbourhood, but Manchester itself.
 
The skyline may have evolved, but the character of Ancoats still carries that same spirit of reinvention and progress.
 
Along the canal in historic Ancoats, a new chapter is beginning at Jersey Wharf - continuing the story of a neighbourhood shaped by generations before it.
