Manchester Withington MP Jeff Smith met residents and staff for lunch recently at L’Arche Manchester.

L’Arche is a community based home in Withington, where people with and without learning disabilities share life together, living and working in the community. Although grounded in the Christian tradition, L’Arche Communities welcomes people of all faiths.

Jeff said: “It was great to get a tour of the home by one of the residents and see the fantastic work they do in the community.  I want to thank the residents and the staff for welcoming me into their home.”
