# Open Data Manchester #  Open Data Manchester is a not-for-profit formed from a diverse group of open data advocates in 2010 that supports organisations to release data and helps people use it. Wherever we work, we promote responsible and intelligent data practice supported by research and evidence, and focused on need. At home in Greater Manchester, we convene an increasingly expert community recognised for its efforts to make sure that data is used in ways that support people, planet and prosperity. We know that effective use of data can help solve some of our big challenges. By demystifying its use and supporting people who want to use it wisely, we believe we can bring about a fairer society - where everyone benefits from better decision-making, better products and better services.
