We will provide updates when we can – but due to the current situation we have removed the current listings for now…
What’s on the Range
Are you a musician, artist, photographer, crafts person living or working in Whalley Range/M16?
If so you need the What’s On the Range Christmas Web Page. What’s on the Range (WOTR) is a new project brought to you by Whalley Range Build Back Greener though the Arts. WOTR links Crafts, Creators, Communities, Cultures and makes Connections between the people of Whalley Range.
Our WOTR Christmas page will highlight the artists, crafts people, cooks, musicians who have lovely stuff to sell as Christmas Presents.
Perhaps you can sell art works? Create an event whereby a musician will play outside a house for a private micro-concert (great gift for neighbours or friends!) Some lovingly hand crafted things? A yoga class? A sample music lesson? A CD of your music or a download?
WOTR is providing this page as a way of putting Whalley Range people in contact with each other. We are not responsible for the buying and selling of goods and services. Everyone needs to make their own decisions about the things on offer here.
If you would like to join in by selling things you create, contact wotrange@gmail.com and tell us

WHALLEY RANGE FOR PEACE AND JUSTICE
For almost 20 years, Whalley Range for Peace and Justice (WRPJ) has held a card-writing event in St Margaret’s Church in Whalley Range on the first Saturday in December.
These have been in support of Amnesty International’s “Write for Rights” campaign.
This is a campaign where people are encouraged to write messages of support to people around the world who have suffered injustice.
Or to write to those in authority who could help end the injustices.
This year’s campaign runs from 2nd November until 31st December.
It covers 10 cases of injustice. Amnesty provide information booklets which describe the cases and advise where to write to and what to say.
Your communications may be by post, email or social media. Covid 19 has meant a rethink by WRPJ this year.
If Lockdown#2 ends as stated on December 2nd there will be a card writing event at St Margaret’s Church, Rufford Road, M16 8AE on Saturday 12th December from 12 noon to 5pm.
Numbers will be strictly limited and all social distancing measures that apply to community facilities will be in full force, including a one way system for entry and exit.
There will be 4 ‘sittings’ of one hour each at 12 noon, 1.15, 2.30 and 3.45.
A maximum of 6 people from one household or bubble may sit at a table together. Smaller groups and individuals will be seated in a COVID appropriate fashion.
Masks must be worn in the church by anyone aged 11+ unless you have an exemption.
We cannot replicate the atmosphere of our normal events when we pack well over 100 people into the church at any given point, but some elements will be preserved. For example there will be stalls by Palestine Solidarity Campaign, News from Nowhere and Kimbilio plus the popular second hand bookstall.
There will also be a raffle with prizes donated by local businesses.
Sadly refreshments cannot be served so you will have to bring your own flask!
And there will be no children’s activity table but children are welcome to bring their own activities to do at your table.
If you would like to come along please email WRPJ2020@gmail.com
and indicate your preferred time and the names of the people in your party, giving your mobile phone number.
Your preferred time may not be available, but we will do our best.

Manchester Care and Repair: Big Energy Saving Week 2020 – 20 Ways to Save
Save in the kitchen
- Use a bowl to wash-up rather than running a tap, reduce your washing machine use by one cycle a week, and only fill the kettle with the water you need and you could save around £36 a year in the kitchen.
- A dripping tap can waste more than 5,300 litres of water a year, so make sure your taps are properly turned off and change washers promptly when taps start to drip.
- Save in the bathroom
- Spend one minute less in the shower each day and a family of four could save £75 a year on energy and water bills.
- A running tap wastes more than 6 litres of water every minute, so turn off the tap while brushing your teeth, shaving, or washing your face.
- Replacing an inefficient shower head with a water efficient one could save a household of four people around £70 a year off gas bills and around £115 a year off water bills.
Save on lighting - Turn your lights off when you’re not using them. If you switch a light off for just a few seconds, you will save more energy than it takes for the light to start up again. This will save you around £14 a year on your annual energy bills.
- Replace your bulbs as and when you can with energy efficient LEDs – on average it could save about £35 a year on bills.
Save on appliances - Turning your appliances off standby mode can save you £30 a year and remember not to leave laptops and mobile phones on charge unnecessarily.
Save on heating - If you have a timer on your central heating system, set the heating and hot water to come on only when required.
- If you turn down your main thermostat by 1 degree, you can around 10% on your energy bill. But make sure your home is warm enough during cold weather. Cold homes can damage your health.
- Installing a room thermostat, a programmer and thermostatic radiator valves and using these controls efficiently could save you around £75 a year.
- Close your curtains at dusk to stop heat escaping through the windows and check for draughts around windows and doors.
- Draught-proofing of window and doors and blocking cracks in floors and skirting boards can save around £20 a year on energy bills.
Save by switching - Use the Citizens Advice energy price comparison tool to see if you can save money by switching energy tariff or supplier.
Save by getting extra support - Do a home energy check to find out about savings of up to £130 a year on household energy bills. Visit the Simple Energy Advice website and get personalised energy savings advice.
Visit your local Citizens Advice office to get advice in person about how to reduce your energy bills.
If anyone in your household is receiving benefits, contact your energy supplier and see what support they can provide. They should be able to tell you what help is available through the Energy Company Obligation.
If you need a little extra help from your energy company – including large print bills or more support during a power cut – you can apply to be added to your electricity network priority services register.
Check if you are eligible for the Warm Home Discount. Energy suppliers can provide rebates to households on certain benefits. The rebate is £140 for 2019/20 and you should contact your electricity supplier directly to see if you qualify.
If you live in Wales, contact the Welsh Government’s Nest scheme on 0808 808 2244 to see if you are eligible for a package of free home energy efficiency improvements such as a new boiler, central heating or insulation. If you are aged 60 or over and live in Manchester, you can also contact Manchester Care & Repair for help support with your energy costs. Or come and visit us at one of our upcoming events this Big Energy Saving Week, to see how we can help you.

Archive news about Transport…
Are we getting there?
Age-friendly transport across Greater Manchester
Greater Manchester Older People Network Conference Report – Liz Jones, Macc
The following 23 questions were raised by participants during the course of the morning workshop.
Some were posed to Andy Burnham and the expert panel in the afternoon. The rest have now been submitted to Transport for Greater Manchester and the Greater Manchester Ageing Hub for responses.
- How will we prioritise investment and coordination of community transport schemes (such as Ring and Ride)?
- How do we get a complimentary, localised, fully accessible, funded, door to door transport service?
- How can the design of transport be improved? This can include better information, bus stops, seating, interchanges, training etc.
- How can we ensure that there is a consistent good level of training for understanding various needs across all transport?
- How can we expand and better tap into existing community assets, such as volunteer schemes, minibuses, taxi sharing etc?
- How are you going to better involve older people in decision-making around public transport? Are bus drivers currently given training run by older people/people with disabilities? If not, could they be in future?
- How do we involve older people in designing new provision For example, there are issues with the new Bolton interchange which could potentially have been avoided with a better commitment to co-design.
- Why cant free bus pass be used before 9:30am when a lot of hospital and health appointments are made before 9:30 am?
- Can we develop a more comprehensive network for Park and Ride?
- It is difficult to access toilets at main transport stations/interchanges. Can transport maps highlight local toilets and flag up community toilet schemes and/or publicise other nearby toilets?
11.Why isnt parking on pavements illegal in Greater Manchester?
12.Is a congestion charge for Manchester a consideration looking ahead?
13.How do we propose to make community transport more age-friendly, along the lines of the Ring and Ride scheme?
14.When is re-regulation of buses going to happen?
15.Can transport links/routes be linked or better integrated with hospital and health care locations? For example, having maps on display of bus, tram and train routes, indicating stops and routes for local hospitals and health centres.
16.Promotion what currently available, such as taxi vouchers, hailer cards etc. While these are available, they are not sufficiently known about. How do people find out about these? Can they be promoted more widely and at relevant times?
17.Are you surveying older people satisfaction of public transport? If so, can you share the results with the GMOPN?
18.Do you think it is right to ask people to surrender their bus pass in order to qualify for the taxi voucher scheme? Could both offers be flexible?
19.How do we help people not on main routes? Even a five-minute walk can be a real challenge.
20.Who can we can communicate with to get answers to questions and to be able to feed our ongoing concerns into transport planning?
21.Can we have real-time information displays at bus stops, as the case with trams and trains?
22.How are you going to better synchronise the bus, tram and train services?
Once we have received responses, we will publish a set of replies on our website at
www.manchestercommunitycentral.org/policy-and-influence/gm-older-peoples-network
Read the report below:
The British Muslim Heritage Centre has been made a recipient of Her Majesty the Queen Award for Voluntary Service
The British Muslim Heritage Centre has been made a recipient of Her Majesty the Queen Award for Voluntary Service.
The British Muslim Heritage Centre (BMHC) is very proud that its work in building trust and finding common grounds between communities through shared heritage and culture has been recognised in this year Queen Award for Voluntary Service.

The BMHC is an organization of committed people, the vast majority of whom are volunteers, dedicated to this cause and have proven over the years that together we can achieve our aspirationsâ€.
Mrs Huma Ali, a volunteer on one of BMHC flagship projects Heritage Community Radio said: “The BMHC has given me the opportunity to serve my local community, develop new circle of friends and gain new skills in Broadcast Radio. I feel that my contribution conveying the message of peace is hugely valued by all, which boosted my confidence in many aspects of my lifeâ€.
Mrs Hanna Shafiq, a parent Scout Leader of the BMHC Scouts Group said: “The BMHC provides immense support and an amazing venue for the BMHC Scouts Group. It has enabled us to provide children with the opportunity to be part of a global organisation, the Scouts. Through our hard work, the children learn valuable skills which will take them into adulthood, skills such as: teamwork, time management, leadership, self-motivation, cultural awareness and commitment. We are proud to be part of the BMHC and we are honoured to learn that our volunteering has been recognised at the highest levelâ€.
With over 120,000 visitors a year, benefiting from a range of services, the BMHC always welcomes and encourages people to come forward and support the many community projects on offer, such as BMHC Scouts Group, exhibitions, community radio, and over 30 different initiatives supporting youth, women and other groups.

Befriending, connecting and more: Age-friendly news
Members of Age-friendly Whalley Range and Chorlton were happy to welcome a group of delegates from the Standing Committee for Health and Social Welfare from Oslo City Council to our community centre recently.
We received a message from the group upon their return to Oslo:
Good morning 🙂
On behalf of The Standing Committee on Health and Social Welfare in Oslo I want to thank you a lot for hosting us last Monday.
You have a very inspiring place, attitude and experiences and the group visiting you expressed that in plenum.
We have arrived safely in Oslo after interesting and great days in Manchester and Leeds.
Good luck with your future work.
Yours sincerely
Hans–Olav Toft
Secretary of The Standing Committee on Health and Social Welfare
(Thanks to Russell and Dave for letting us use the the church as it was enrolment day in the JNR8 hall for our ESOL learners!)
Manchester Cares is a brand new community network of young professionals and older neighbours hanging out and helping one another in our rapidly changing city.
We do this because our home town of Manchester is a wonderful place, with innovation and influence, history and heart at its core. There’s always so much going on, from new music to new businesses to new people arriving all the time.
But the city we love is now growing and changing at double speed, and that leaves some people feeling anonymous, isolated and left behind.
For our older neighbours in particular, many of whom have spent a lifetime in their home neighbourhoods, the rush and pace of the city can often now feel too much. Getting around can be difficult, and trends including globalisation, gentrification, migration and digitisation are transforming communities faster than ever before.
The multiplying effect of those pressures is that many older people have deep roots – from Ancoats to Ardwick, Longsight to Levenshulme – but few connections. Meanwhile, young professionals – often graduates from across the country and around the world – can have hundreds of connectionsin the social media age, but often no roots in their communities.
The separation of those parallel worlds wastes human potential, entrenches loneliness and isolation, perpetuates social division and is ultimately corrosive for our society.
Manchester Cares seeks to address this modern blight of disconnection by harnessing the people and places around us for the benefit of all.
Our objectives are to:
- Reduce isolation and loneliness amongst older people and young professionals alike
- Improve the connection, confidence, skills, resilience and power of all participants so neighbours can feel part of our changing city rather than left behind by it
- Bring people together to reduce the gaps across social, generational, digital, cultural and attitudinal divides.

ABOUT CYRIL FLINT BEFRIENDERS
With over 5 million elderly people living on their own, and 50% citing television as their main source of company, loneliness is an ever-present problem within our community (Campaign To End Loneliness).
Cyril Flint, an elderly pensioner living on his own in the Trafford area, was a classic example of one such individual. Having spent 20 lonely Christmas holidays on his own, since the passing of his wife, Cyril story not only evoked a wave of compassion within the community, but it also made us want to do something to help. Setting up an informal befriending service, designed to help prevent social isolation, seemed like the perfect solution. Since its creation, our scheme has grown throughout the Manchester area and we now have an increasing number of active volunteers throughout the community. https://www.cyrilflint.org

Age-friendly Whalley Range event at Ivy Court, Chorlton
On March 17th, Age-friendly Whalley Range & Chorlton held a Community event at Adactus Housing’s Ivy Court on Beech Road in Chorlton – to bring older people together to socialise, to enjoy a hot meal and to access information in good company.
Loren Grant of Foodwiser gave a presentation about food and nutrition: Foods to Remember – how food and lifestyle can help protect you from memory loss and dementia.
We were also really happy to welcome the Lord Mayor of Manchester, Councillor Carl Austin-Behan to the event to welcome everyone and to talk about the great work volunteers are doing in communities across Manchester – and of course to pose for photographs with everyone!
A huge ‘Thank You’ to Trina, Andrea and Roger for all your help – and Una and Lotte for pampering and the bag-making workshop.
The Lead Station provided a delicious St Patrick’s Day themed lunch of Irish potato & chive soup and a selection of sandwiches including Guinness braised beef and Irish cheddar ploughmans… and our host – Scheme Manager Gloria Thompson – provided lots of tea and coffee, cake and biscuits!
Age-friendly Whalley Range & Chorlton is a local network and steering group aiming to support and engage with residents, to promote healthy ageing and access to information.
After the event Gloria said:
“Residents who attended are still buzzing about the information they received, the food and the visit of the Lord Mayor.
Comments about the event include, “The presentation on nutrition was excellentâ€. “I learned so muchâ€. “I would attend the event againâ€. “It great to see our lounge used for an event like thisâ€. “The person who did the hand massage even told me about oils that can help me sleep betterâ€.
See some more of the photos from the event below.
Thanks to our Age-friendly photographer Anthony Morris – who has an exhibition of his photographs in Chorlton library from 3rd-29th of April.

The History of Whalley Range Lawn Tennis & Cricket Club
The first volume of the club history is now available. It is A4, 200+ pages long, lots of photos etc, and retails for £20, but is just £10 to current members. Copies are available from the club when there is access to the bar.
To buy mail order, please send cheque for ££20 inc p&p made payable to Whalley Range CC, and address it to Mike Hill c/o WRC & LTC, Kingsbrook Road, M16 8NR. Please remember to include your postal address.
Two England cricket captains, three Olympians, a famous music composer, a sprinkling of county cricketers, international rugby players, a prolific author, a renowned amateur astronomer, and the cream of the country lacrosse players are just a few of the stars who have graced the club from Whalley Range down the years.
One of the oldest clubs in the area, with cricket dating back to 1845 and tennis first staged in 1881, Whalley Range truly boasts a most colourful and illustrious pedigree, and this volume charts the first 100 years, from its early existence on College Road, its brief tenure at Hough End, through to its current residence on Kingsbrook Road, where it benefited from a rich influx of talent from the nearby William Hulme Grammar School.
The book is as much a social history of this area of Manchester as a sports book and recounts the many ups and downs and the devastating heartbreak caused by the wars, as well as stunning performances, record scores, and regular appearances at Old Trafford.
