What About Me?

Breaking Barriers

A magical, immersive journey through our local park, created with and by the young people of Salford

Parr Fold Park

Join us in Parr Fold Park for a powerful outdoor performance where the voices of Salford’s young people take centre stage. Through sound, light and storytelling, you’ll be guided on a journey that reimagines the city with playfulness, honesty and bold imagination.In this unique production, we share the voices of hundreds of young people from across Salford, having frank discussions about where they live, where they play, where they feel safe, and where they want the course of their life to take them.Let Salford’s young voices lead you. Listen, imagine, and walk into the future. “When I’m older I wanna bring the whole neighbourhood to each other, talkin’ to each other and makin’ friends. That would be the greatest thing.” - Young Person from Salford Access Information<ul><li>Start at Rutland Road entrance, collect headphones at The Pavilion, and follow our guides in high-vis jackets.</li><li>The route lasts around 30 minutes, is wheelchair accessible and follows wide, flat paths at a slow pace.</li><li>Volunteers are on hand at every step of the way to guide and support.</li><li>There will be pauses to stop, look and listen along the way.</li><li>Toilets are available at The Pavilion.</li><li>Please dress for October evenings (dark, cold, and possibly wet).
