Making More of Every Gift

The Charity Service have provided the Booth Centre with invaluable grant funding, both to weather the challenges of the pandemic as well as to help us run our activities on an ongoing basis. At the Booth Centre we help hundreds of people affected by homelessness every year, and funding from the Charity Service has been instrumental in allowing us to offer a range of different services to support people to move forward in their lives. We are so appreciative of the open, friendly and professional communication we have always received from the Charity Service and proud to count them as a valued partner.

The Charity Service are very clear about the projects it would like to support and in our experience the funding application process has been straightforward and uncomplicated and they have worked with us to develop a positive funding relationship. Communication has been clear and they have always been happy to answer any queries. We are proud to have received funding from the Charity Service for our work supporting vulnerable people in Greater Manchester. The Charity Service demonstrate a consistent commitment to making the lives of local people better and we truly appreciate the support.

The Charity Service has generously supported our Crisis Fund, to provide immediate tailored practical help to low income families in emergency situations. Wood Street Mission supports families living in Manchester and Salford who struggle each day to make ends meet. The COVID19 pandemic has impacted on these families the hardest. Having this funding in place from The Charity Service has meant we have been able to respond quickly to need as it arises. It has been vital in helping us support families who have found themselves in very difficult circumstances, to help improve the day to day life of their children. The Charity Service have been very supportive of our work and we appreciate the opportunity to form a positive relationship with them for the benefit of those in Manchester and Salford.
