Happy New Year. We hope this year brings back some of the things we once took for granted. We have been overwhelmed by the patience and understanding of everyone has shown. Every year our staff go above and beyond but 2020 they have done so under enormous pressure. Thank you all!

Please see notice that our residents received this week outlining the impact of the latest national lockdown. We are grateful for all the support and cooperation at this difficult time.

Hopefully all our #HiddenHeroes know their worth and how much they are valued today and every other day. We are currently living and working in challenging times and everyone at @HmpManchester and HMPPS are our heroes.

Please see message from the ARC: Calico Group and Delphi Medical building planters with a big help from Cameron at Acorn Recovery Housing and Graham for his mutual aid. The pictures show us building planters outside the ARC, we are hoping to build a herb and vegetable garden.

Please take a look at our recovery plan. Thank you everyone for your support and patience throughout these challenging months. We are working hard to restore the key services that everyone will hopefully benefit from.
