When Anna Webster’s adopted son was diagnosed with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD), she discovered how little awareness and support existed for families living with the condition. Anna chose to use her experience to help others, and has been working alongside our researchers to shape groundbreaking research and shine a light on a condition that is too often overlooked.

Anna features in our Heart of the Community exhibition, a series of portraits showcasing the incredible people in the community who are making a lasting difference together with our researchers. Read her story:

If you’re new to the area or haven’t had a chance to explore yet, here is a handy pocket guide to some areas in Manchester and Salford📍

MediaCity - this is a waterfront district and media hub; one of our campuses is also based here. It’s home to the BBC, ITV and plenty of bars and restaurants. You’ll always find a great sunset here too 🌅

Chapel Street - this is the road from main campus into town which has loads of great brunch spots, pubs and food spots. Try out our very own artisan bakery and brunch spot- the Old Fire Station🚒

Northern Quarter- this area is known for its quirky independent shops, bars and cafes. If you love vintage shopping, music and funky decor, this place is for you 💿

Castlefield - this is one of the most historic areas of Manchester. There’s Roman ruins, canals and the popular Castlefield Viaduct garden 🪴

Market Street and the Arndale - this is Manchester’s main shopping district, where you can find all your major high street brands 🛍️

New Islington Marina - this is a modern neighbourhood located near the Northern Quarter. It’s centred around the marina and is next to Ancoats which is home to great food spots and regular makers markets 🍜

Oxford Road- home to lots of food and drink spots and a very busy area with students. Check out Circle Square which has some nice green space and food spots 🌿
