Norman and David met through our Love Your Neighbour programme and recently they shared their first outing to Old Trafford. We caught up with them to see how they found the day.
Our next fundraising event is almost here...and could you BE anymore excited for this Friends Quiz?

Social Club in the Spotlight: Business Visits!
Each month as part of our Social Clubs programme, a group goes on a 'Back to Work' Business Trip to visit one of the organisations that make up Manchester’s diverse workforce.... hear about some of the highlights in our new blog.
Summerleigh first got involved with Manchester Cares back in August 2018, and since then has supported the network in more ways than one! From her friendship with Gloria as part of our Love Your Neighbour programme, to supporting the network by rallying her workplace together, and helping our outreach team to deliver warm items to older neighbours in Hulme and Longsight, there has been no end to her warmth and generosity. We interviewed Summer to find out what she’s enjoyed and gained from being part of the network.
Looking forward to 2019, we have a New Year Celebration, a Burns Ceilidh and a Cooking Club – all guaranteed to banish any January blues.
This month we’ve got seven festive, free and friendly activities for you and your older neighbours to share time, conversation and laughter! There’s everything from wreath making in Hulme, to a Christmas Sing-A-Long special in Ancoats.
