Open Youth Night

Open Youth Night is a relaxed, welcoming space for young people aged 11+ to hang out, meet new people and get involved in whatever takes their interest. Cook something up in the kitchen, make music, dance, play sports, get creative or simply chill with friends.

There’s no pressure to take part in everything. Come along, try something new or just enjoy having a space to be yourself. Click the link to fill in the form to attend.

Broken Chords - Manchester Month of Hope

Part concert, part confession, part love story, Broken Chords is a funny, moving and defiantly hopeful piece of gig theatre about love, loss and learning to live with grief.

When Cumbrian couple Kirstie Pelling and Stuart Wickes lost their 21-year-old son to suicide, they turned to songwriting – not to explain what had happened, but to find a way through it together. Now they bring their remarkable true story to Stretford, blending original songs, storytelling, spoken word and humour in an intimate theatrical performance.

Directed by former Dukes Artistic Director Joe Sumsion, Broken Chords comes to Stretford Public Hall as part of Greater Manchester’s Month of Hope and the Shining a Light on Suicide campaign.

Tickets are free, thanks to support from NHS Greater Manchester.
