mediacity:uk – who is it ?

mediacity:uk is a partnership between Salford City Council and Peel Holdings, which owns the Trafford Centre, Manchester Ship Canal and virtually everything else. It’s being co-ordinated by Central Salford Urban Regeneration Company (URC) and supported by North West Development Agency (NWDA). The URC is already a partnership made up of Salford City Council and the NWDA, plus English Partnerships.

Meanwhile, the Chief Exec of mediacity:uk is Felicity Goodey, who’s also Chair of the Central Salford URC. Felicity Goodey doesn’t get paid for being Chair of the URC but does get paid lots for being Chief Exec of mediacity:uk, although she won’t tell us how much because that’s “commercially sensitive”
