Tears were expected at this celebration. The Pride of Manchester awards held at the Kimpton hotel on Tuesday May 10 celebrated the unsung heroes of our region by singing their praises.
From the emergency services award celebrating the best of Manchester's blue light workers, to the spirit of Manchester and special recognition awards to those in the city who have really made a difference, the Pride of Manchester awards celebrates the ordinary people of this great region for their extraordinary actions.
Celebrities joined the stars of the night on both the red carpet and the stage as they presented awards. Manchester’s own Mel B and Andy Burnham were in attendance alongside singer Fleur East, Mwaka Mudena and Richie Driss from Blue Peter, Paralympians Dame Sarah Storey and Jaco Van Gass, legendary broadcaster Moira Stuart, Elbow’s frontman Guy Garvey and many more, including faces from Coronation Street, Love Island and the Real Housewives of Cheshire.
