We’re committed to the people and places that make up Greater Manchester
That’s why we’ve partnered up with two incredible charities that support people across Greater Manchester.
Forever Manchester

Manchester Building Society Community Fund
The Manchester Building Society Community Fund is set to provide £100,000 of funding over three years to support grassroot community organisations across Greater Manchester, with £30,000 available during its first year.
The fund’s focus will be on projects that provide work and employability support services, with priority also given to those that foster diversity and inclusion. Broader community initiatives will also be considered with the aim of backing a range of organisations across the ten boroughs of Greater Manchester.
Making a difference in Greater Manchester
Our teams in Manchester love helping others. We do lots of things like teaching people about money, giving time to local charities, and helping out with community projects.
Volunteering is one of the many ways we bring our purpose to life, building stronger communities today, and a brighter tomorrow for everyone.
