The business has previously donated to multiple charities, such as Manchester-based Centrepoint, which received a £250,000 donation for its independent living programme.

Together also donated £100,000 to Forever Manchester, which was used to establish a ‘Together Energy Fund’ to support local community centres across Greater Manchester with rising energy costs.

Charites such as St Ann’s Hospice and childhood cancer charity The Joshua Tree also received donations from Together, enabling them to continue providing vital support.

“Over the past year, we have already been able to help organisations across the region, addressing crucial societal issues such as homelessness. 

“We see this initiative as a long-term commitment to improving the lives of people locally and nationally while raising awareness of their individual goals.”
