Manchester is basking in scorching sunshine this week which means everyone has shed their raincoats, put away their umbrellas (or turned them into parasols) and is slapping on the sun cream. There’s not a cloud to be seen and according to forecasters it’ll be hotter than Ibiza on Thursday - rather impressive for a city famous for its rain.
Make the most of the warm weather (while it lasts) with a visit to one of the amazing parks we have within the city. Whether you’re looking for somewhere to enjoy your lunch break away from the office, or a pleasant green spot for alfresco dining on a balmy evening, there’s plenty of parks to choose from.
There’s small but perfectly-formed gardens tucked away in the city centre, while if you head further out you can lose yourself in nature at one of the bigger parks. Spending time outside is a great way to boost your mood and clear your mind, leaving you more relaxed.
