The Northern Quarter welcomed a new co-working kid on the block last month and it’s ideal for those looking to escape the monotony of working from home.
FLAGSHIP is Manchester’s newest and carefully-considered COVID-safe flexible office provider.
Located on the corner of Turner Street and opening its doors at the start of August, the 1500sq ft space is perfect for every business to thrive, from the freelancer and the entrepreneur, to the big business needing more space.
By investing in the basics and putting careful thought into the details, FLAGSHIP Manchester has been designed to be enjoyable and productive for all, with every person working in the space able to walk through the door “glowing with pride at where they work and what they are achieving”.

What distinguishes FLAGSHIP from other co-working offerings in the city is the huge amount of thought that has gone into the spaces.
Amid the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, FLAGSHIP firmly believes that as we move towards the ‘new normal’, entrepreneurial ideas and innovation will flourish as we learn to live in a socially-distanced and technology-dominant world.

FLAGSHIP is “excited” to very much be at the forefront of what will be a dynamic shift in the concept of an office environment.
From the Herman Miller furniture, to the generous workspaces proportions, the Manchester space has been designed by people who understand what is important to be as productive as possible. Social distancing measures and a regular cleaning schedule has been fully considered and implemented into the space in order for members to feel safe and comfortable.
Most importantly, FLAGSHIP understands that work schedules may be uncertain at the moment, so “endeavours to work with you to create flexible options that suit you”.

Massive football fans themselves, who have both been part of the ALOTO cast in the past, it’s a funny lineup, for sure.
While the main presenter, Romesh Ranganathan, has not been confirmed as part of the touring crew, it’s worth noting that the lineup could change closer to the time. We wouldn’t be surprised if they have some special guests up their sleeves for one or two of the shows, either…

John Stones is leaving Manchester City after a decade
Danny Jones
Manchester City defender John Stones has revealed he will be leaving after nearly a full decade in sky blue at the end of the season.
The England and Man City defender has lifted pretty much everything there is to win at club level, being part of the ‘Centurions’, Treble-winning and four-in-a-row sides.
John Stones signed for City back in August of 2016 and has gone on to be part of their greatest-ever period of success under Pep Guardiola, not to mention becoming a mainstay in the national team during that time.
Sharing a moving video on social media, announced the decision that will see him depart after the best part of 10 years this summer.
Having made nearly 300 appearances for the Cityzens, he will leave the Etihad as one of their most decorated players, with a tally of 19 major trophies, the same number of goals and nine assists during his time with the club.
That being said, depending on how the remainder of this 2025/26 campaign goes, all of those stats could improve even further.
Writing in an official statement of their own, Man City went on to say: “Armed with wonderful technique, a sublime passing range allied to a superb work rate and astute reading of the game, Stones was in many ways the very embodiment of Pep Guardiola’s City.
“Such was his natural talent and tactical flexibility that Stones’ City career later saw him often deployed in a hybrid role, which saw him move into the middle of the City engine room to great effect, not least in the 2023 UEFA Champions League final…”
He is now set to leave as a free agent this June.
John Stones will leave Manchester City in the summer, bringing an end to a memorable and hugely successful ten-year stay.
They sign off by adding that “the Club and all of our supporters will take the time to deliver a fitting tribute and farewell to a superb servant of Manchester City Football Club at the end of the season.”
Following rumours of his departure in recent weeks and months, a number of clubs across Europe are already thought to have expressed interest in a transfer for the 31-year-old.
Some of the names floating around the Yorkshire-born centre-back’s signature include AC Milan and Bayern Munich; there have even been some hints at Everton attempting to re-sign him.
Where does he rank among your favourite City stars of all-time, Blues?
