Charity representatives receive the check
Submitted by James Seton
A charity that provides affordable groceries to Trafford residents has reopened its other services after the lockdown.
The Bread and Butter Thing resumed debt and housing assistance, mental health support, and other activities following the end of coronavirus restrictions last year.
Thanks to a £ 2,500 grant from a charitable foundation run by US business and health company Maximus, the charity can once again help those struggling in Greater Manchester.
Based in Trafford Park, Stretford, Greater Manchester, the charity provides affordable food, support and advice to low-income people across the city.
Mark Game, CEO of The Bread and Butter Thing, said: “We are extremely grateful to the Maximus Foundation UK for their generous donation.
“This funding will allow us to revitalize our community support services that have been suspended during the pandemic, including debt counseling, housing counseling and other assistance to support our low-income members and their families.”
Di Briggs, Chairman of the Maximus Foundation UK, said: “The prospects for smaller charities across the UK remain very challenging. We are excited, therefore, to help The Bread and Butter Thing continue their amazing work of providing affordable food and support to the communities they serve. “
