The Brian Kennedy Trust are very proud to have helped the Wood street Mission by helping struggling families from Greater Manchester with the provision of school uniforms.

Wood Street Mission chief executive Roseanne Sweeney said: “A big thank you to the Brian Kennedy Trust for its support. A record number of children were referred to us this year for school uniforms which shows the extent to which families are struggling to meet the costs of the new school year. The BKT grant will mean more than 300 children from disadvantaged backgrounds will start school in September looking smart and fitting in with classmates.”
