Christmas is often called the most wonderful time of the year. It represents joy, giving, and spending time with loved ones. However, we know that for many people, the festive season can be a time of isolation and loneliness.
At Salford Community Upskilling CIC, we believe that no one should have to spend Christmas alone. That is why we are thrilled to announce our upcoming Christmas Celebration, dedicated to bringing our wonderful community together.
A Big Thank You to Forever Manchester
We want to start by saying a massive thank you to Forever Manchester. Thanks to their generous support, we are able to host this event and connect with our community members who might otherwise spend the festive period in isolation. Their partnership allows us to create a warm, welcoming space where neighbors can become friends.
Help Us Spread the Joy: Gift Appeal 🎁
To make this event truly magical, we are launching a special appeal for gifts. We want to ensure that every member of our community feels seen and valued this Christmas.
If you are able to donate a gift, no matter how small, you will be helping to put a smile on someone’s face. Your generosity will go directly to community members attending the event, adding that extra sparkle to their holiday.
Looking for Somewhere to Go at Christmas?
If you are looking for company, conversation, and festive cheer, please come and join us! We open our arms to everyone in the community. Whether you are new to the area or have lived here for years, you are welcome at our table.
