Wood Street Mission

Wood Street Mission helps support families living on a low income in Manchester and Salford, with practical support and services.

We can help families with children’s clothes, toys, bedding, baby equipment and toiletries through our Family Basics service, from our base here in Manchester City Centre. Families can come along to our Book Clubs, to pick up books to take home and have a fun morning together each school holiday.

Our SmartStart project can help with school uniform and other school kit, and at Christmas we can help with gifts for the children.
