Collecting since the first day of Lent – 22nd February – pupils have donated a grand total of 14,831 pennies / £148.31p to the Catholic charity’s Lenten ‘St Joseph’s Penny’ appeal which provides care and support for children and parents with family difficulties or where children are vulnerable and at risk.

Welcome to Fetch The Heatons!

If you’ve ever visited the Fetch Didsbury website then you’ll know what Fetch is about. We promote local businesses, events and organisation for free on the web using our websites, Facebook and Twitter.

The Fetch Network has grown massively in the last 3 years and so we decided it was time to get our act together and make our free location promotion available to other areas of South Manchester.

All the Fetch sites will be closely integrated so you may see some Didsbury content we think is of interest on the Heatons site, but don’t fear as it will mainly be Heatons information we put in front of you for your enjoyment.
