Air quality and pollution is a key concern for Greater Manchester and is currently a hot topic in the news. Manchester City Council recently identified Medlock Primary School as having one of the highest levels of air pollution in the city. University of Manchester research identified air pollution on the Brunswick estate as being a key concern to local residents.

Come along to this free community event in Brunswick, Manchester where primary school pupils alongside social and environmental sciences will present an interactive conference on air quality. The event will provide a discussion place to share the young people’s research findings and encourage us all to explore what changes big and small we can make to improve air quality in the local area.

This conference style event will also offer an opportunity to showcase some of the wider research that’s taking place in Brunswick in partnership with the local community and provides an excellent space to foster conversations on future direction for the University Ardwick Partnership.
