About us
Manchester Youth Zone is a Children’s Charity based in Harpurhey, North Manchester. Although the area is regularly ranked in the top 1% of the country for deprivation, we don’t accept that where you come from dictates where you are going in life! For a decade, MYZ has been the place in North Manchester for young people aged 8-19 (up to 25 with additional needs) to raise their aspirations and enjoy healthier, happier lives. Here, they can try new things that will: • Send their confidence skyrocketing • Reach goals that will set them up to chase their dreams • Make them feel great about themselves right now Building resilient, determined, and creative adults We’re a safe space open when schools are shut, where young people will always have someone who has their back. Our purpose-built centre offers an extensive programme including sports, arts, life skills and training. Our facilities include a full-size sports hall with 8m high climbing wall, 3G outdoor sports pitch, dance studio, music and media suites, theatre, arts room, boxing gym, fully equipped fitness suite, sensory room, recreational area and cafe. Bagging skills, mates for life and the resilience to live life to the full – that is what we are all about.

We all match....... Thanks to the generosity of the Carlisle Support Services team who helped design and donate our new Manchester Youth Zone uniform! Hoodies that make us stand out and keep warm (we'll need them more often soon). John Lambert, Paul Evans Steve Cere thanks for sorting these for us, I'm sure you'll agree the whole team looks awesome! I did post a photo a few weeks ago with a few of us wearing them but, this us us, #TeamMYZ together at our recent Community Re-Launch day. #Thankyou

Last week, we were pleased to welcome Manchester City Council's Community Safety and Anti-Social Behaviour Team to our Youth Zone. 💬✨ Our young people had the opportunity to share the behaviours they experience in their communities that make them feel unsafe, and more importantly how things can change. A big thank you to Council staff Christian and Lenin for listening, engaging, and helping our young people feel heard and empowered. 👏💙 #YouthVoice #CommunitySafety #TeamMYZ #PositiveChange
