The Lalley Centre is a warm and inviting community centre based at St Malachys RC Primary School in Collyhurst. We bring together schools, parishes and the local community with Caritas in an area of considerable social deprivation. A team of paid staff and volunteers provide one-to-one advice and access to other support and welfare services. We run a weekly foodbank for which demand is increasing each week, and provide emergency food parcels when our partner agencies refer people in crisis to us. We also have a wonderful community allotment.

There is so much more work to be done, though, as the need for our services only grows and we would love to be able to support many more people than we currently do. With your donations we can expand our work and ease deprivation in North Manchester, and do our small bit towards making the world a fairer place.
