Contact Details

Salford Children's Fund is part of a government funded programme for 5 - 13 year olds at risk of social exclusion. Working towards achieving good outcomes for young people in line with Every Child Matters.

In Salford, the Children's Fund targets areas of the city which face particular disadvantage and groups of young people who are most commonly excluded from the benefits of public services. Services are provided by statutory, voluntary and community sector organisations through contracts. All services must include young people in planning and decision making.
