Expressing his concern over the dominant development agenda in the city Oli said:
“If the current wave of development continues Manchester will become sterile with loads of places for people to live but no space for people to do anything else. Many young people are searching for places to inspire them within their communities but are increasingly having nowhere to go.”
“Community space ‘that can change their lives’ Oli emphasises that the campaign is not about saving the building as a #Manchester heirloom, it is primarily aimed at putting it to good use for the local community.” #SHH #SaveHulmeHip
