Helping young Manchester Thrive
Three-quarters of UK children spend less time outside
than prison inmates. Active play and learning is
essential to the health and development of children.
Our Thrive Moss Side sessions aim to tackle this.
This project was funded by the Manchester Health and
Care Commissioning Thrive Grant, administered by the
Young Manchester charity. Sessions targeted specific
groups to improve mental health and wellbeing including:
youth offenders, youth groups and school groups.
Young people took part in sessions throughout 2021
including gardening, environmental arts and cooking at
the Powerhouse; DIY and woodwork at the Boiler House
and green wellbeing visits to local community
greenspaces.
Activities built on previous successful youth projects
at the Boiler House partnering with youth organisations
Manchester Young Lives, Hideaway and Remedi and
young person’s ecotherapy project #Thrive in Rochdale.
