Hi all, 
  for those of you coming to the No Borders UK gathering this weekend, please
find more information, including venue details and directions below:

  MERCi, 21 Beswick St, Ancoats, Manchester M40, fully accessible
  info phone (from Friday evening only) 07707118410
   
  Directions to the gathering:
   
  If you are travelling from Manchester City Centre, during the day walk along
the Ashton Canal since it is quiet and picturesque. It takes about 10-15
minutes from Piccadilly Train Station (at the bottom of the ramp on Piccadilly
Approach) turn right up Ducie Street. After the bridge on your right, turn
right and drop onto the Ashton Canal at Paradise Wharf . Turn left; continue
past Piccadilly Village and under Great Ancoats Street . Walk along the canal
and up the steps at bridge no 5 onto Beswick Street . Turn right and Bridge-5
Mill is the grey building on the opposite side of the bridge on your right. 
   
  
  By bus from city centre:
  A bus leaves Piccadilly Gardens every few minutes for Ancoats - it takes about
ten minutes. Board bus no 216 outside Nobles Amusement Arcade, ask for 'The
Mitchell Arms' pub. Get off just after you see the pub on the left, on Ashton
New Road , and turn left. Take an immediate right turn up Beswick Street and
continue up the hill. After the second road on the left ( Spectator Street ),
you'll find the entrance to Bridge-5 Mill. 
   
  Travelling by car from the city centre:
  Make for Great Ancoats Street (the inner relief road) east of Piccadilly Train
Station. Then travel out of the city centre up Old Mill Street (on the corner
is an Argos superstore). Travel up Old Mill Street , past Ancoat's Hospital on
the right until you come to a set of traffic lights at the cross roads of
Butler Street , Beswick Street and Bradford Road . Turn right down Beswick
Street , immediately over the canal bridge is Bridge-5 Mill on the right.
