A climate change group from Manchester, who closed the A6 last October, have now won a Be Proud Award.
Ardwick Climate Action, didn’t just close this major route to cause disruption, though that helped highlight their cause, it was part of a research project in collaboration with the University of Manchester.
This has led to the group being awarded a Greater Manchester Environmental Fund Grant.
WFM presenter Colin Owen spoke to the groups’s co-founder, Dan, to find out why they closed the A6.
