On the streets of Fallowfield, their chants could be heard loud and clear - "my body, my choice" and "whose streets? My streets."
Thousands of students of all genders stopped traffic along Wilmslow Road this evening (November 30) to spread their message - gender based violence must be eradicated.
The march, which started at Manchester University's Owen's Park campus, and culminated at the Student's Union on Oxford Road, was part of the annual Reclaim the Streets demonstration.
