The team will be collecting non-perishable food, toiletries, hats, scarves and gloves.

Manchester Office to Support The Mustard Tree

From their base at 196 Deansgate, Farleys’ Manchester office will be collecting boxes of chocolates in support of The Mustard Tree’s Christmas campaign. The Mustard Tree supports homeless people and those in poverty in Manchester through friendship, practical support, and connections into work.

Burnley Office to Support Emmaus

Lancashire Women’s Centre offers support to women across the county on mental health and wellbeing, employment and skills support, money, benefits and debt advice, and justice and safety.

Reta Rose, marketing manager at Farleys and trustee of the Farleys’ Foundation explained,

“Last year, we did a similar collection for local charities and received such a great response that we have decided to do it again this year.

“The charities we have chosen are all fantastic causes supporting local people; something we as a firm are hugely passionate about.

“As Christmas is the time for giving, we hope everyone will join us in donating what they can to support those less fortunate.”
