| Manchester RSPB Local Group |
The Group is based on the city of Manchester in the Northwest of
England. As well as Manchester it contains the SK8 region of Stockport.
There are several thousand members in the group who are all regularly
sent leaflets on group activities throughout the year.
The Manchester group contains Didsbury within it's boundaries, where
the founding meetings of the RSPB were held over a hundred years ago.
Initially these were to attack the millinary trade's use of rare birds'
feathers in the manufacture of hats but, of course, the organisation's
activities rapidly spread from this limited aim to one of active
intervention to save birds' habitats and research into their migration
patterns in cooperation with international partners.
