About this cause

The Charity works with vulnerable adults and young people across the most deprived Rochdale communities. We provide tailored interventions incorporating 1:1 and group sessions, training and practical support. By knowing our community, understanding the complexity of the issues faced and evolving as an organisation to meet changing social, health and wellbeing needs we have become the leading independent provider of domestic abuse programmes, support and interventions across the Rochdale area. This is in addition to our menu of youth support, family focused programmes, Social Isolation group support sessions and In-house Counselling service. Our vision is that by providing support to whole families in their community, we will make a lasting impact on the life chances of local residents.

How this cause brings people in the community together

This project will reduce stress, anxiety and guilt amongst the poorest members of our community who cannot afford expensive gifts for their children at Christmas. Children will have a great time at the Party and be presented with a gift which their parents are involved choosing. It will prevent families taking on debt they cannot afford to repay and will help to foster improved community spirit.
