Manchester Half Marathon 2025 · 12 October 2025 ·

Gateway has a vision of a society in which all people are equally valued Our Gateway centre was built using urban program funding and has been in operation as a Charitable organisation for over 25 years. Gateway originally started with our centre based on Kenion Street, and over the years has expanded to managing five different sites; operating 5 Day Services, a Respite provision and as a host to multiple Social activity opportunities to the community. Our success is largely attributed by our fantastic staff teams. We would not be the Gateway we are today without our teams working so creatively to ensure we assist our service users in leading a wholesome lifestyle. Actively accessing all integrated leisure, education, employment and living opportunities in the community. Our staff are all fully trained and qualified to work in our teams at Gateway. Our teams collectively have a wealth of experience from many different backgrounds, their strengths are identified and utilised to provide excellent services for the individuals we support. Every member of staff from the Chief Officer to the Caretaker to the Volunteers play an integral part in making Gateway the prestigious place it is.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On October 12th I’ll be running (with a sprinkling of walking 😬) my 2nd Manchester Half Marathon, this time with a view to raising some funds for Rochdale Gateway Leisure.

They are a fantastic community service in Rochdale and Oldham, giving adults with disabilities and their families the opportunity for some respite along with lots of fun times, social activities and community engagement.

Running each of their 5 day and respite centres is very costly at the best of times, so anything you can spare would be greatly appreciated.

And if you can’t spare anything that’s ok too. 👍 A quick share of this page to your friends family would also be appreciated.
