Story

Many people may be unaware of the fact that Manchester has one of the highest rough sleeping rates in the country.

In 2017, 21 homeless people died in the city and recently new figures revealed that one in 47 children in Manchester are now homeless.

This Christmastime, the temperatures will drop below freezing, putting many of the rough sleepers at serious risk.

That's why we've chosen to support Back on Track Manchester this year and with permission and lyrical help from the Band Aid Trust, we've produced our very own cover of 'Do They Know It's Christmas?' to help raise awareness of this crisis.

Please give whatever you can to help those that have suffered as a result of homelessness by simply texting DSG and the number of pounds you'd like to give* to 70085.

For example, to give £10, simply text "DSG 10" to 70085.

Thank you for all your help.

*Donations will be added to your monthly phone bill or taken out of your current credit. Back on Track will receive 100% of all donations, the option of Gift Aid will be given. Minimum of £1 donation.
