19/11/2007 - Site Update

To anyone that has been checking the site recently and wondering why it's so out of date, apologies. It has been in need of an update for a while, and although some areas are now up to date, there are further updates to come.

More information on them can be found on their council page and their My Manchester page. If you fill in their online questionnaire you could even win a digital camera!
