About Us

Our focus is to provide practical help to children and their families. Aims & Mission Statement

We help families in the Manchester and Salford areas.

Practical help is in the form of good quality second hand clothing, bedding and most items of baby equipment.

We also provide families with toy and food parcels at Christmas time and Easter Eggs at Easter.

We are based in Wood Street, just off Deansgate in the Spinningfields area of Manchester and adjacent to the John Rylands's Library.

Wood Street Mission is a non-denominational organisation.

We helped 1,121 families with clothing and goods in 2007, including 2,667 children. At Christmas we gave toys and chocolate treats to 1,441 families including 3,171 children.

We rely on donations and local support in order to continue providing this vital service. Want to know how to get involved?

All goods donated to us are checked for quality and then sorted into sizes ready to be made up into individual parcels for the families. Our van collects donations throughout Greater Manchester, Cheshire and parts of Lancashire.
