Wood Street Mission

Wood Street Mission is a children’s charity that supports families from Manchester and Salford who are struggling to make ends meet. Their main project is ‘Family Basics’ and families can choose which items they need from a large selection on offer. This includes children’s clothing, toiletries, toys, books and baby equipment. To receive help from Wood Street you need to be referred by a professional who knows your family’s circumstances well. Although the charity is based in Manchester City Centre, they are now offering an outreach session once a month here at Wharton and Cleggs Lane. This makes a big difference to local families who may struggle with the expense of getting into the town centre. The sessions are by appointment only and you need to book directly with Wood Street Mission. For details on how to be referred please visit - Get Support - Wood Street Mission or telephone 0161 834 3140.
