Launching Healthy Me Healthy Communities
Business Plan and Impact Report
2025-2028
Healthy Me Healthy Communities (HMHC) has launched our 2025–2028 Business Plan and Impact Report, setting out our strategic priorities for the next three years alongside the outcomes and learning from our recent work across Manchester.
The report highlights our continued commitment to community power, place-based working and reducing health inequalities, with a clear focus on delivering practical, community-led solutions rooted in local assets and lived experience.

Key highlights include:
- Strengthened community power and participation, supporting residents to shape decisions, services and neighbourhood plans
- Expanded food system and food security work, linking health, skills, sustainability and the circular economy
- Investment in learning, skills and progression, including accredited qualifications and pathways into employment
- Deepened cross-sector partnerships, working with statutory, academic and VCSE partners to influence systems and policy
- Clear evidence of social value and impact, with room hire, training and community activity reinvesting directly into community benefit
The 2025 – 2028 Business Plan sets out HMHC’s ambitions to:
- Grow Gorton Central as a thriving community anchor and innovation space
- Strengthen organisational sustainability through ethical income generation
- Embed co-production, inclusion and transparency across all areas of work
- Scale learning from neighbourhood-level delivery to influence wider systems change
