Throughout the summer of 2018 Memody collaborated with Manchester People First to support a group of learning disabled adults to write and record two songs. They shared both their experiences of hate crime (which was shared with Greater Manchester Police at a conference on hate crime!), and also the love and support that MPF provides for the community.
