❌ The Addy is in danger – Wythenshawe’s kids need us NOW! ❌
For 20+ years, The Addy playground has kept kids safe, off the streets, and full of hope.
But unless we raise £650,000, it could CLOSE forever. 💔
The Addy has been the heartbeat of our community — keeping our kids safe, giving them friendships, skills, and a place to dream big.
From zip lines to football matches, dance classes to just being somewhere they belong — thousands of children have grown up here.
But now, this much-loved playground is at risk.
Unless we raise £650,000, The Addy could close its gates forever. 💔
For so many young people in Wythenshawe, The Addy is more than just a playground — it’s a lifeline.
It’s where children learn confidence.
It’s where teenagers find mentors instead of gangs.
It’s where families can feel safe, together.
We can’t let it vanish.
