Harvest Festival seems a likely occasion for such a scene, but in Collyhurst, Greater Manchester, they\u2019re cultivating so much more than produce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Faculty\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.se.manchester.ac.uk\/connect\/social-responsibility\/#:~:text=accessibility%20(EDIA)%20stories-,Our%20commitment,Maths)%20subjects%20have%20diversity%20challenges.\">Social Responsibility<\/a> team has provided the catalyst for change, allocating Lecturer in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ce.manchester.ac.uk\/\">Chemical Engineering<\/a>, Hosam Aleem, the Better World fund to kickstart his budding outreach idea. The investment has begun building bonds and putting down roots at Collyhurst Nursey School, with a promising and innovative community allotment initiative. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr Aleem set out with one aim: to bring local people together by sowing a garden of fresh food and reaping a new sustainability culture. For the use of the children, parents, community centres and other local schools, he has been working closely with Collyhurst Nursery Manager, Nicola Burton, to improve the collective sense of belonging, achievement and health equality in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/11\/planters-1024x536.png\" alt=\"Empty planters awaiting soil \" class=\"wp-image-5949\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/11\/planters-1024x536.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/11\/planters-300x157.png 300w, https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/11\/planters-768x402.png 768w, https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/11\/planters.png 1224w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Collyhurst resides in the wards of Miles Platting and Harpurhey, which are ranked as some of the most deprived in Manchester. The stats reveal 65% of children live in absolute or relative low-income families and 75% of families live in rented flats or terraced housing. 1\/3 of this accommodation has no outdoor space. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Worryingly, 50% of deaths are attributed to diseases linked to poor diet, tobacco and sedentary life, with the life expectancy in Collyhurst 8 and 6 years shorter that the average male or female in England and Manchester, respectively. Not only will this space encourage positive eating behaviours, healthy activity and contact with nature, but it\u2019s purpose is to reduce the potential for issues like conflict and loneliness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the experience so far, Dr Aleem says: \u2018It was both rewarding and inspiring to work on the allotment project with Collyhurst nursery. Knowing that one makes a positive impact, no matter how small, on people\u2019s lives, especially children makes the effort all the more worthwhile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018I have also benefited from learning of the many opportunities available, and the people dedicated to help improve the lives of others and care about the environment.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/11\/soil-1024x536.png\" alt=\"Bags of stacked soil donated to Collyhurst Nursery\" class=\"wp-image-5947\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/11\/soil-1024x536.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/11\/soil-300x157.png 300w, https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/11\/soil-768x402.png 768w, https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/11\/soil.png 1152w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Free services and materials have been donated by a host of local businesses.
