Salford charity backed by Team GB Olympian that's helping children during cost of living crisis

With the country currently in the midst of a cost of living crisis, budgets across the public and private sector are being squeezed.

Schools in Greater Manchester are no different and that means tough choices are needing to be made across the board. Fortunately some education establishments in our area and beyond are being helped through these challenges by Salford -based charity CPL Group.

The not-for-profit organisation started their 'Giving Back' scheme in 2019 and since then has donated £1m to more than 100 initiatives for schools, colleges, academies and universities nationwide, helping them to provide quality learning tools during a time of financial struggles. St John Rigby College in Wigan is one of the establishments which has benefitted from the scheme.
