Donate
Salford Loaves and Fishes supports people who are homeless, at risk of homelessness, isolated, vulnerable, experiencing in-work poverty, seeking sanctuary or facing difficult circumstances.
From our centre on Paddington Close, we provide immediate practical help alongside longer-term support. This includes free meals, hot drinks, advice, support workers, showers, laundry facilities, clothing, toiletries, activities, training and opportunities to build confidence and skills.
We also work closely with partner organisations so people can access specialist support in one welcoming place.
