Campaigners battling to save a much-loved community club in Manchester have declared victory after successfully removing the threat of eviction.
The Carlton Club, in Whalley Range, is in a sprawling white building and is regarded as an important cultural asset for that part of the city. It is a community hub which is seen as much more than a place to meet friends and neighbours for a drink and a catch-up. Depending on when you go, it might have live music, arts events, yoga, gardening, fitness sessions, a book club, quizzes, backgammon, philosophy group meetings and more.
