‘Man of Rochdale’ Luncheon 2016

The twenty-third annual Man of Rochdale Luncheon will take place in the Great Hall at Rochdale Town Hall on Friday 25 November.

The luncheon is held annually to raise vital funds for Springhill Hospice, whilst also honouring the man, who through public nominations and then final analysis by the Men of Rochdale Committee, is considered to have made the most significant contribution to the Rochdale community.
