On Wednesday 11th June 2025, the Green Community Café in Clarence Park came alive with energy, conversation, and creativity as the Bury Age Without Limits event delivered a fantastic day of fun, learning and connection. Organised by the Bury Older People’s Network in collaboration with the Ageing in Place project, the event celebrated the talents and experiences of older people, while inviting the wider community to get involved.

Let Your Light Shine are a new community group based in Prestwich that provide holiday activities for children. Sherrie started the group after hosting a party for children in her son’s primary school class where she observed that many children were struggling with social isolation, which was affecting their mental health and development of social skills.
