12 Local Projects That Need Your Support

We’ve got 12 big little miracles brewing right here in Eccles.


Each one is community-led. Each one is changing lives. And each one costs just £1,000 to bring to life.


Here’s the deal:


On 20th Sept, 11am–1pm, Eccles Town Hall turns into a marketplace of hope. (More details here).


Free refreshments, buzzing energy, and 12 amazing projects you can actually touch, see, and say: Yes, I want that in my town.


Because this isn’t some far-off charity appeal. This is Eccles. Our streets. Our kids. Our neighbours.


You get to pick the project that makes you think: That’s what I want for my community.

It’s local. It’s real. And it only happens if we step up together.

Which project will you help bring to life?

Level the Playing Field: Equip Our Girls' Rugby Team (Salford City Roosters)

Female rugby is booming in Salford. But our girls still train with worn-out, hand-me-down kit. We urgently need support to provide proper training gear, safety equipment, and teamwear for our growing girls and women’s squads at Salford City Roosters.

Your donation creates a safe, inclusive, and professional space where players can thrive — and belong.

Sewing Hope: Repair, Identity & Community (Fixit Folk)

These 20 creative workshops do more than teach sewing. They help people mend their clothes and their confidence. Supporting isolated individuals this project explores identity, self-expression, and community through repair and reuse.

With sewing kits and skill-sharing, we’re stitching together dignity, purpose, and belonging.

Keep Moving, Keep Smiling: Support (Mature Movers)

Every week, women aged 50 to 100 gather to dance, laugh, and stay active together. We regular perform at care homes and local events. However they struggle to keep going due to increased costs. Most members have limited income.

Your donation helps keep the music playing — covering hall hire, teaching costs, and transport so this joyful tradition continues.

The Family Club: A Safe Space to Grow Together (Westwood Park)

Many families we support have nowhere to go. No welcoming space beyond home or school. The Family Club offers free, inclusive sessions where parents and children connect through cooking, creativity, and play.

Your support builds confidence, connection, and resilience in families facing financial pressure and isolation.

Warm Homes, Full Hearts: A Holiday Lifeline (Salford Families in Need Project)

Christmas hits hardest for struggling families. We’re providing food bags and £25 energy vouchers to 40 local households. Covering heating costs over Christmas.

Your donation brings real warmth, nourishment, and dignity to those who need it most.

A Safe Place to Sleep: Support for Salford’s Smallest  (Salford Baby Bank)

No baby should go without a safe place to sleep. Our Eccles-based baby bank provides Moses baskets and travel cots to families in urgent need — ensuring babies sleep safely.

We’re seeking funds to supply 20 families with life-saving equipment and a safer start in life.

Connection & Care for Older People (Salford Community Events Group)

Too many older people live alone and unaware of the help they’re entitled to. Our socials bring 120 guests together for a meal, music, and informal benefits advice in a stigma-free setting.

You’ll help reduce loneliness and unlock life-changing support for one of our hardest-to-reach groups.
