Last Friday to top off a great week of learning, we joined and other healthcare professionals to meet with to discuss the impacts of indoor and outdoor air pollution across Manchester and what actions we could undertake to improve Manchester's air quality for children and young people.

In the afternoon, the team then headed to Whitworth Park to cheer on colleagues who were participating in ; cycling from Wythenshawe and North Manchester Hospital to raise awareness of links between air quality and childhood health issues.
