All Together As
So what is
One Stockport is an initiative conceived by Stockport Council to be supported by, and delivered in partnership with, representatives from Stockport’s many diverse communities and we’d like your help too.
Working together we can build a better future for everyone by connecting communities, promoting health & well-being and supporting our local businesses.
Over the past weeks and months, the coronavirus has impacted on every one of our lives.
We now have a unique opportunity to harness our new-found sense of community and equality and to become united as One Stockport.
As the One Stockport story is told by everyone in our community, the campaign will evolve.
Through a shared vision, we can all work together to build a brighter, more sustainable future for everyone.
