Mayor's Charity Appeal
The Mayor, Councillor Eric Burgoyne, is supporting the following charities during his term of office.
St. Ann's Hospice
St. Ann's Hospice is run by an independent charity based on three sites. The Mayor is supporting the hospice based in Little Hulton, Salford, where palliative care is provided for patients with advanced and progressive illnesses. This type of care involves the management of pain and other symptoms as well as valuable psychological social and spiritual support.
Salford Young Carers Service
Salford Young Carers Service is run by the Princess Royal Trust for Carers. This service is for young people aged between 8 and 17 years. It offers advice, support, information, specialist support groups, activities and residential breaks. The service includes festivals, forums and a dedicated worker to support young carers as they become young adult carers.
Charity quiz
On Tuesday 24 January, 2012, the annual charity quiz was held at Buile Hill Banqueting Hall, Salford. The night was a huge success and raised £320.00 for the Mayor's Charity Appeal. Out of the 22 teams that entered, the top three places were awarded to:
- First: Quizee Rascals
- Second: The Adders
- Third: The Hits
Well done and a big thank you to everyone who took part.
