Pride open day at The Veg Lord

Pride open day at The Veg Lord

The Veg Lord is a queer owned small business built on strong foundations: they’re passionate about providing quality produce at accessible prices and giving back to the community around them. Everything they do is led by this and they want to enable people to cook and provide for themselves; try new foods; get creative in the kitchen and feel a sense of achievement when they’ve produced a nutritious meal (even better if they’ve used one of our very own recipe cards!). When you’re eating out, you know you can get the same great quality as we provide a number of cafes and restaurants in the local area too. Opened in May 2022 from humble beginnings, the couple Matt and Mark want to leave behind a legacy of an example of a truly community-led business, that brings people together through a love of food. Join them at their open Pride day on 22nd August when you will enjoy food stalls, DJ and entertainment, an art exhibition and much more. Funds will also be raised for George House Trust.

The Substance meets The Manosphere? James Wakes up

This week on Your Manchester, Belinda and Mark sit down to shine a spotlight on James Wakes Up, the latest production from Pink Zip Theatre. As James approaches his 30th birthday with just one year to turn his life around, he makes a dramatic decision to reinvent himself. Launching an online health and fitness platform, his unconventional journey to success soon raises difficult questions about ambition, morality and the true cost of achieving your dreams. We chat to some of the cast including Matt Radford, Elle Wilder & Toby Rothwell about the inspiration behind the production, the themes of modern success, social media, identity and responsibility, and what audiences can expect when this thought-provoking new play takes to the stage. James Wakes Up marks Pink Zip Theatre’s second production following the award-winning success of their debut play Leeches, which enjoyed an acclaimed run at the Manchester Fringe Festival 2025. If you enjoy theatre, new writing and discovering exciting independent productions, this is an interview you won’t want to miss. 👍 Don’t forget to like, subscribe and hit the notification bell so you never miss a new episode of Your Manchester.
