Earth Day 2026

We’re celebrating Earth Day this year with a special day of broadcasting in collaboration with Manchester City Council.

From 2pm, Moss Side resident, record label boss, community leader and activist Balraj Samrari will be delivering a heady dose of nature-inspired music and will be speaking to a range of different people from the local area about their greening projects.

These include Hafsa about her Prime Minister endorsed Moss Side Eco Squad project, William White from MCR City Council on the importance of tree planting and Mark from Reflexive Passage on his alleyway greening initiative.

Workin It Wednesdays follows at 4pm, with the normal high energy chat, with special guests including Alex from Feel The Rhythm Pocket Park and Raf and Jade from MSV Housing Group on the projects they’ve been supporting. We’ll also be hearing from Michelle from the incredible Brotherhood Project and Anne from Upping It on her endeavors to clean the alleyways of Moss Side through nature.

You can get involved, as always, through the chat or using #EarthDay26 on socials, and we’ll be posting key info throughout the day, including voting on how the council spends nearly £20 million on projects that are most important to you.
