Hey there
We currently live in Essex - though my OH and I are originally from the North East. We've lived down here for 10 years, after moving down post-uni to work in London.
We are moving to Manchester with work next year - neither of us have been to Manchester properly. Only been through the city whilst at gig's or connecting flights! So have zero clue when it comes to places to live/places to avoid. We have a 5 year old boy who has additional needs (mainly extra Educational support now, though he was born with Talipes, Torticollis and Hypermobility). My only real concern about moving is taking him out of school - as we've only just got him settled with the extra support he's in need of.
With this in mind, I was hoping Mumsnet might be able to help us out with any suggestions of areas to live? We'll be renting until we can get settled and eventually buy. My OH's office is based in the Northern Quarter. And we'd like to not live directly in the city - our current commute is 30 mins, so happy to commute into Manchester, whether that be by public transport or driving/cycling. Are there any 'Village' type areas within this length of commute? Or can anyone recommend schools that might be able to support with our needs, and then we can work out where to live, based on the school?
Many thanks in advance!
