Manchester

In Manchester, we work with a number of local schools and colleges to provide advice, opportunities and skills training to young people, aimed at raising aspirations,  giving  the students an insight into the world of work and helping them to develop essential skills. 

We support a number of local charities with fundraising and seasonal collections, including Mustard Tree, Wood Street Mission and Fareshare.

In our UK offices, we run regular Donate Our Time (“DOT”) days, combining workgroup teambuilding with volunteering in the community, in a variety of ways - including working with food poverty charities and creating and maintaining community open spaces.  We are always happy to organise joint BCLP/client DOT days. 

We have an active charity fundraising programme.  Through an internal nomination and selection process, our UK offices choose a charity to support each year.  For 2024, our UK charity of the year is Mummy’s Star, whose vision is for everyone diagnosed with cancer in and around pregnancy to be able to access support free of charge, in a timely manner.  In addition to running events and challenges in aid of our Charity of the Year, we also run fundraising events and collections in kind for other charities, tackling issues such as access to justice and food poverty.
