We love charities and are proud to support them.

Some of the ones we have helped recently:-

Rochdale Children's Moorland Home

Rochdale Children's Moorland Home can be found in open moorland little more than a mile from Whitworth, Rochdale. Nab Farm was transformed into a holiday home for children in 1921, when it was given to the trustees of the charity. The philosophy of the charity is simple: Provide a healthy environment, good food and a comfortable house and any group of youngsters will enjoy themselves.

The Home's running costs are met mainly from charitable donations and during term time, school parties, including children with disabilities from the borough's special schools benefit. During the six week summer holiday, children nominated by social services enjoy the home's facilities. The home is run by a very small group of dedicated staff, who work around the clock to look after children from very poor backgrounds and give them the attention that they may not receive at home.

Springhill Hospice

The Hospice opened in 1989, and provides Specialist Palliative Care for people with life-limiting illness. In-patient, Day Hospice, Outpatient and 24 hour advice line services are available for patients throughout Rochdale and surrounding areas.

In addition to services for patients, care is extended to the patients’ carers and families. The Hospice is an independent charitable organisation and relies on voluntary contributions in order to keep the doors open.
