Our 10 year Celebration. Partying ‘The Mancunian Way’

North West charity celebrates everything ‘Manchester’ at tenth anniversary extravaganza

To mark our 10th anniversary we hosted The Mancunian Way beneath the wings of the world-famous Concorde in The Hangar at Manchester Airport’s Concorde Conference Centre.

Hosted by Manchester-born broadcast journalist, Michelle Eagleton, and Manchester drag queen, Belinda Scandall, The Mancunian Way celebrated everything that is Manchester, from Canal Street to China Town, the Hacienda to the Northern Quarter. Guests were immersed in what Manchester is all about. They tasted, listened, laughed, sung and danced their way through the evening, the ‘Mancunian Way’.

Entertainment included Mr Wilson’s street band, live Jazz bands from the Northern Quarter, as well as a live DJ and saxophonist who will enchant the audience with sounds reminiscent of the Warehouse Project. There was also a unique performance from Manchester poet, Tony Walsh.

Fiona Moss, Natalie’s sister and co-founder of the Natalie Kate Moss Trust, said: “We have achieved so much over the last ten years and so we wanted to do something a little different to celebrate that journey and that of our home city of Manchester.

“We are planning a whole host of surprises; and this will certainly be a spectacular event. We want to shock, surprise and entertain, celebrating all the colours and textures of Manchester whilst raising important money to support the ground-breaking, life-saving research taking place at the University of Manchester.

“We have experienced the heartbreak of losing a young daughter and sister to a sudden brain haemorrhage and, just last year, we committed to raising a massive £300,000 to fund further research into brain haemorrhage at the University of Manchester.”

The event truly lived up to expectation, with messages received immediately the next day simply saying, “when’s the next one…?”

Well, watch this space….
