Take a look at our photo gallery and video tour of Didsbury’s Poppy Path below.

We took a trip down to Didsbury’s Poppy Path, a mural created late last year to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the end of World War One.

Located between Didsbury Park and School Lane, the mural was unveiled after five days’ work by graffiti artist Quebek. Quebek’s other work includes the bee mural on the side of Koffee Pot in the Northern Quarter, painted in memory of those who lost their lives in the 2017 terror attack.

The community team behind the mural are running a crowdfunding campaign which will go live on 29 April for one month.

The campaign will be part of the Projects That Matter: Greater Manchester, a competition organised by Crowdfunder and M&S Energy to award £5,000 to two green crowdfunding projects in Greater Manchester.

The £5,000 prizes will be donated to the project that receives the most supporters and the project that raises the most money.

The Poppy Path team hope to raise enough money to fill the path with plants and install low level fencing down one side.
