The Foundation 92 launches ‘December to Remember’ support campaign

Salford charity Foundation 92 is launching its 2023 December to Remember holiday campaign to support the community across Greater Manchester.

The charity will deliver free to access activities over the festive period and a Christmas present drop with Foundation 92 co-founders and partners, along with Salford City FC players.

Drop off points across Salford and Greater Manchester have been set up for gift donations.
