We had the honour of hosting a fundraising gala this week for the Manchester branch of Manyu elements cultural association— a non-profit dedicated to preserving and celebrating the rich cultural heritage of the Manyu people.

The Manyu people are an ethnic group from the Manyu Division in the Southwest Region of Cameroon. With an estimated population of over 300,000, they are made up of several tribes and villages, including the Banyang, Ejagham, and others. The region is known for its lush forests, strong clan structures, and deeply rooted customs passed down through oral traditions, music, dance, and festivals. Manyu culture places a strong focus on family, respect for elders, and communal living.

The event was held to raise funds for uniforms. The warm, earthy décor paired perfectly with MEC’s values: rooted in tradition, focused on community and full of heart.
If you’re planning a special event — whether it’s a wedding, fundraiser or a Birthday celebration — we’d love to hear from you. Heritage 1907 offers a unique, character-filled space with original mill features. Get in touch to book a viewing with our team!

“𝐇𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐬 𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧 – 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦.”
“𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐣𝐨𝐛 & 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞!”
“𝐃𝐨 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐟𝐮𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐨𝐫 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬.”

These aren’t quirky vintage signs-They’re actual posters from the early days of the mill still stuck to the walls of our upper floors. They were pinned up for survival — loud reminders for workers in a cotton mill where accidents were common, and the job didn’t come with many second chances.

These posters are untouched, unrefined, and full of the energy of people who came here every day to graft. You can almost feel it: the pressure, the pride, the rhythm of shift work.

It’s quiet now. But it doesn’t feel empty.

You can still sense the pace of the work, the noise, the routine. Generations came through this building to earn a living — and whether we redevelop those floors or leave them be, that’s something we’ll always respect.

This is not your average reception.

As you walk into Ram Mill Business Centre, you’re met with a dramatic double-height atrium bathed in natural light, framed by original steel structures and topped off with a bespoke lighting sculpture that catches the sun just right.

Our Celestial inspired Chandelier hangs from the original mill crane system which was once used to move machinery in this cotton mill.

Whether you`re arriving for a meeting, heading to your office, or just passing through — this view never gets old.

Come in, look up — and tell us what you see.

Tucked away on the first floor of Ram Mill is a space full of charm, character and over a century of history. Heritage 1907 is housed within what was once part of the original mill production floor and still features the incredible cast-iron overhead crane — a striking industrial relic from its textile days. It was a working hub of machinery, where cotton was moved, stored, and sorted beneath the same arched windows that flood the room with light today.

We’ve carefully restored the exposed brickwork, original steel structures and blended them with luxury finishes, soft lighting and a polished parquet flooring. The result is a space that feels timeless — a perfect backdrop for weddings, receptions, corporate dinners, and private celebrations.

It’s one room, but no two events ever look the same.

We thought we’d share one of our most recent renovation projects here at Ram Mill 👇🏽

Once the former office of Hale Training Club, it’s now been completely transformed into Støckhølm by Ruger — a beautifully executed hybrid salon on the ground floor of Ram Mill.

The name ‘Støckhølm’ was chosen by Alan as a nod to the roots of Scandinavian barbering culture — known for its precision, simplicity and craft. The salon’s clean lines, minimalist palette and calm atmosphere reflect that inspiration in every detail.

The transformation is a credit to Alan & Ella’s vision. Thoughtfully designed and Scandi-inspired, the space combines original red brickwork, black feature flooring, slimline LED lighting,

We’re proud to have played a part in the build, and even prouder to see it now open.

We’ll be sharing more of these soon in a short series, showing you exactly where our refurb projects begin… and where they end up.

We are so excited to finally welcome @alan_beak and @ella.at.stockholm to Ram Mill Business Centre — their brand new hybrid salon, Støckhølm by Ruger, officially opens tomorrow! 💇🏽‍♂️✨

This is something we’ve wanted in the building for a long time, and the wait has definitely been worth it. The space itself is just as sharp as the cuts — exposed brick, soft lighting, clean lines, and lovely greenery

We love that it’s now part of the everyday lifestyle here at Ram Mill. Whether you’re working upstairs, visiting for a meeting, or just passing through to the gym — having a space like this on-site adds something extra to the atmosphere of the building.

You’ll find it on the ground floor near reception
Congrats Alan and Ella — we’re so happy to have you here 🙌

Doors open tomorrow. Get booked in.

We’re pleased to share that another one of our newly built offices at Ram Mill has officially been leased.

This one’s tucked away on the ground floor — a bright, compact unit with restored brickwork, huge windows and a clean, industrial finish.

Just a few weeks ago, this space was a stripped-back shell (swipe to see where it started).

We’ve stripped it back, rebuilt it with purpose, clean lighting overhead and modern fittings where you need them… and that exposed brick doing all the talking

We build these offices with care, because we know what businesses are looking for — something professional, functional, and a little bit different.

Get in touch to view what’s coming next.
