Socially distant but virtually together
Like nearly all charities we have had to postpone our public fundraising events and activities. But although lockdown might be keeping us apart it doesn't mean that we can't join together.
From running a Zoom quiz to taking on a daily challenge, you can make a difference with the Together Trust. If you have an idea for a virtual fundraising activity we'd love to hear from you!
Colour Together
Bring our archives to life and make lockdown a bit more colourful. Take a picture of your completed colouring-in sheets and share them on social media using #ColourTogether - don’t forget to tag us in!
Our designs are free to download but if you can make a small donation you will help transform the lives of the people we support who love to be creative. Just £3 or £5 could supply art materials for one of our residential homes.
Search Together

Our amazing key workers have been keeping the people we support healthy and safe. The issues they face right now are universal but the only way for our communities to flourish is to enable everyone to thrive. Our word searches are free to download but if you are able to make a small donation you could help the people we support live the life they choose.
The issues faced by the people we support right now are universal, and the only way for our communities to flourish is to enable everyone to thrive. We can't do this alone - your support will make that difference.
Our fundraising has seen a huge decline since the outbreak of COVID-19. If you are able to please make a donation to support the ongoing work of our fantastic services we are so thankful to you. When you give to us, you’re helping to transform the lives of the people we support. Thank you!

Virtual collection tin
Since lockdown, our supporters haven't been able to put their loose change into one of our collection tins found in many local businesses across Greater Manchester.
On average each collection tin raises £25 for the Together Trust. That can pay for food hamper for a care leaver or family that uses one of our services or for a box of sensory items that are used by our speech and language therapists.
If you'd like to raise money for the Together Trust without ever leaving your house get in touch to set up a virtual collection tin today!
