The Cheerful Givers 77
Manchester, UK
The Cheerful Givers 77 is a community charity dedicated to supporting individuals and families facing financial hardship across Greater Manchester. Our mission is simple: to ensure that nobody has to go without food, toiletries, or basic essentials during difficult times.
We provide emergency food parcels, hygiene products, toiletries, clothing, bedding, school uniforms, and household essentials to people who are struggling due to low income, unemployment, illness, disability, family breakdown, rising living costs, or unexpected life events. We work closely with schools, community groups, and local organisations to identify and support those most in need.
A large part of our work focuses on helping families with children. We believe no child should go hungry or miss out on opportunities because of financial hardship. Through our support, we help relieve some of the pressure families face and provide practical assistance when it is needed most.
We also recognise that toiletries and hygiene products are often overlooked but are essential for health, dignity, and wellbeing. Many of the people we support struggle to afford items such as toothpaste, shampoo, deodorant, sanitary products, soap, and toilet roll. By providing these items alongside food support, we help people maintain their confidence and independence.
As demand for our services continues to grow, we are in urgent need of donations. We particularly need non-perishable food items, tinned goods, pasta, rice, cereal, long-life milk, tea, coffee, toiletries, cleaning products, sanitary products, and household essentials. Surplus food donations from local businesses would also make a significant difference to the families we support.
We welcome volunteers who can assist with collections, sorting donations, fundraising, deliveries, and community outreach. Every donation, no matter how small, helps us provide vital support to people facing hardship.
At The Cheerful Givers 77, we believe that kindness changes lives. Our goal is not only to meet immediate needs but also to offer hope, dignity, and reassurance to those going through difficult times. With community support, we can continue reaching vulnerable individuals and families and ensure that nobody feels alone when they need help the most. ❤️

Polish Centre Wilno Manchester
Manchester, UK
The Polish Centre Wilno Manchester is a newly established not for profit organisation run by volunteers.
The aim of the Centre is to bring together the whole community in a happy and friendly atmosphere and to showcase our Polish traditions, history and culture. It is for the use and benefit of everyone irrespective of age, heritage or connection to Poland. Everyone is welcome at the Centre.
We distribute food and essentials to families, the elderly and vulnerable people who are on low income who are struggling financially.
We are looking for volunteers, sponsorship and donations to help with the running and maintenance costs of the Centre and we would also like to make use of any surplus food or other goods that you may be able to provide so that we can give it to people who are most in need in the community. There are lots of local families with children who struggle to make ends meet and there are lots of elderly people who are lonely and isolated who could make use of our Centre and what we can offer them.
With your help we can make a difference to many people's lives.
