When you feel confident enough to leave the Village area Manchester's Northern Quarter is a really good location to walk to and visit to build your confidence of just being out there.

It is only a 5 minute walk from Canal Street, on the East side of Piccadilly, a vibrant neighbourhood in a network of streets full of small, non-chain, family owned cafes, bars and shops.

The area is so unique that it doubles as NYC in movies.

Your will find all of the businesses and people in the Northern Quarter to be welcoming and Trans/non-binary friendly. They are just going to treat you like any other customer or visitor.

A good way to enter Northern Quarter is from Portland Street, keep walking East along Portland Street until it becomes Newton Street. This corner of Newton Street and Dale Street puts you in the heart or Northern Quarter. If you need a post code to find it use M1 1HF
