Hailed as the ‘London of the North’, Manchester is a thriving UK city with a population of over 530,000 million people. If you count Greater Manchester, which has an astonishing population of approximately 2.55 million people, it is regarded as the third biggest city in the UK after Birmingham. It is also one of the leading cities which is part of the Northern Powerhouse; a proposal to boost the local economy, skills, innovation, transport and culture in the UK’s Northern cities (Manchester, Leeds, Newcastle, Liverpool, Sheffield and Hull) and consequently decentralise the immense economic power in London and the South East. As the largest city in the North, Manchester is enjoying huge investment and growth from this initiative.
