Capturing the stories of Manchester.

During the first lockdown back in 2020, when there was so much uncertainty for businesses and people were really struggling, I set up a website called Ancoats Stories where I championed local, independent businesses and helped them to connect with their community.

People seemed to like it and it’s evolved a little since then. Rather than focusing on small businesses, Manchester Stories celebrates the people of Manchester and tells the everyday, and not so everyday, stories of this city.
