THE Bishop of Manchester paid youngsters at Radcliffe’s ROC Centre a visit.

Bishop David Walker, who was named as the new Bishop of Manchester last November, spent time talking to children at the centre in Westminster Avenue on Tuesday.

The centre has seen a 36 per cent fall in anti-social behaviour since it opened in October, 2011.

It offers more than 50 projects including a breakfast club for children, bingo sessions, a youth church and drama workshops.

More than 300 people use activities at ROC Radcliffe, which is a charitable organisation.
