Person
Pete Bradshaw was born, raised and educated in Manchester and recognises himself as a product of the city's comprehensive education system built as it was on a belief that every person had the capacity and capability to achieve great things.
Spending his working life in the management and development of sport and leisure, he has built his primary career in the belief that play, leisure, sport and physical activity are key to wellness in every sense - that being wellness in body and mind, of individuals of communities and neighbourhood.
Although work has taken Pete to different parts of the world, Manchester remains home in heart and soul, where family roots go back so many years, where the fight for what's right and where hard work and industry are imprinted thoroughly.
