Life in Manchester
“We do things differently here,” said Anthony Wilson, one of Manchester’s most famous residents.
He wasn’t wrong! It’s the city where Rolls met Royce; where the atom was first split; and where the first computer was ever made. It’s packed with history, yet always looks to the future.
A city which is buzzing and brimming with activities, events and festivals - legendary for both its music scene and sporting heritage. In Manchester, passion, love, and excitement are contagious, and if you’re not a Mancunian already, you will be soon!
Here at The Manchester College, we’re excited to explore the many reasons to adore the city – let’s get started!
