Post Community NewspapersWe have been asked about distributing the Manchester Post to local neighbourhoods in Manchester. We have carried out a similar task for the Stockport Post recently.
As a trial run, we will deliver to residents in the Longsight/Ardwick area, as it is close from my flat where they can drop the newspapers to. There will be ~200-300 newspapers in total. We will stick to well lit areas in small groups depending on numbers.
For those who wish to get a run in, the meeting point is: Brunswick Parish Church, Brunswick Street, Manchester, M13 9SX or What3words: ///washed.pigs.sports
For those who want to meet at the delivery start site: 139 Clarence Road, Longsight, Manchester, M13 0YJ or What3word: ///bike.funded.scary

You will be able to join a group walking to the task if you'd prefer not to run.
Options are available to run between 3km and 6km in total
Remember that we run/walk to and from the task, so you'll only be running/walking for half this distance in one go.
