Thank you for your support Rebecca, it was a great event & first of many we hope!
An amazing @VFTSeditor charity launch and Xmas event last week, with almost 100 children queuing to see Santa, receive a present, enjoy the food, crafts, music, and games. A great way to start the weekend. Well done Kim & the whole team for all you do for families across Salford

What exactly are government departments going to have to cut in this godawful u turn from the government? Is there going to be any reassurance the vital household support fund will still be available this winter?? @AndyBurnhamGM @paul4citymayor @CEOSalfordCVS @SalfordCouncil
