Food
Thousands of people in Greater Manchester and Lancashire are experiencing poverty, meaning they often struggle to feed their families or access the food they need.
Our services support people in many ways, whether by providing a hot, free meal to those who need it, supplying food packages or goods from our community pantries, or help building the skills to support budgeting, finance, benefits, mental and physical health, and a range of other areas.
1000s
of individuals and families from across Greater Manchester and Lancashire access our services every year.
59kg
of food was produced in our community allotment last year, equivalent to 739 meals.
1000s
of emergency food parcels were distributed by our teams last year to local people.
We run a range of services that help people in need of food support across Greater Manchester and Lancashire.

Our locations
Where we can help
Our name – Caritas Salford – is reflective of the fact that we’re the domestic social action charity of the Catholic Diocese of Salford.
Our reach though, spans not just Salford, but right across the diocese, taking in most of Greater Manchester and parts of Lancashire too.
We’re really proud to be able to work in the heart of communities across our area.
If you’d like to connect with us, get in touch. We’d love to hear from you.
“I can’t tell you how much this means, to have support. Things are so hard at the moment and I’m really grateful for everything you do. My boys don’t know where the food comes from, but they know they will be fed.”
