“Ideal understood the gravity of the task at hand by ensuring to gain as much information as possible from not only Manchester Pride staff but other stakeholders on the site too. They took the initiative to arrange meetings and visits with key venues around The Village. This went a long way to putting people’s mind at ease before they undertook the task in the first year. There’s been a great amount of positive feedback in relation to the cleansing of the streets.”
