There are lots of ways we can work alongside schools in Greater Manchester and Lancashire, providing free resources, help with a range of issues, advice on fundraising, campaigning and social action, and much more.
Formation & animation
We have the privilege of working with schools, parishes, groups and individuals to form them in the principles and themes of Catholic Social Teaching, enabling and encouraging them to put their faith into action in a practical way in their communities.
324
members of staff from local schools have participated in our introduction to Caritas and Catholic Social Teaching sessions last year.
310
new Caritas ambassadors were also trained.
100s

Our locations
Where we can help
This map shows just some of the communities across Greater Manchester and Lancashire where our teams work to support local people…
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.
“Our staff session from Caritas gave us lots of ideas to move forward and help support our children with Catholic Social Teaching…it has created scaffolding for lesson planning and cross-curricular delivery.”
