'WE ARE' MANCHESTER SETTLEMENT BOOKLET LAUNCH

We are

We are delighted to share with you our all new We are Manchester Settlement booklet. This is the culmination of a project undertaken by Rosie Humpage, an intern from Manchester University. Rosie spent 8 weeks with us interviewing as many service users & staff members as possible to help create a document that puts into words the feeling of being part of our amazing charity.

We would like to thank Rosie for all her hard work & we hope you enjoy reading!

welcome to Manchester Settlement

Manchester Settlement is a charity that is rooted in the urban communities of Manchester. The charity has existed in varying forms for upwards of 120 years delivering an ever-changing palette of services to meet the developing needs of individuals, families and communities.

We are proud of the breadth of activity that we have been able to offer and of the flexibility and desire that we have to move into new areas of activity that will benefit our community.

We are delighted to have been recognised as committed to the Disability Confident Employers Scheme

A warm welcome

We pride ourselves on providing a warm welcome, you will be greeted by our super friendly reception team who are always ready to help. Our bustling reception will have children & families from our nursery, members of the community heading to the one of the services we offer & staff going about their day.
