The Manchester Half 2024

Forever Manchester is the only charity that raises money to fund and support community activity across Greater Manchester. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to be happy and we’d love you to become part of this growing movement.

In every neighbourhood across Greater Manchester there are thousands of people involved in community activity. In fact, at any given time there are an unbelievable 20,000 local grassroots projects of varying sizes and interests taking place. We work with local people in our communities to inspire and encourage projects that they want to see, to make their neighbourhoods happier and safer places to be.

Since Forever Manchester was established in 1989 we have delivered over £57 million into local communities, benefiting 1.2 million people. All of the money raised for Forever Manchester is used to fund and support over 1,000 community projects each year. This means we will have supported community activity within one mile of your home or business if it’s in Greater Manchester.

Every year we raise money by hosting a wide range of innovative and enjoyable fundraising activities. The remainder comes from generous donations from individuals and local business. Whether you are a company or an individual, with your generosity and support we can continue to help Greater Manchester’s communities become even greater.

Forever Manchester is all about….

- Putting smiles on the faces of our local communities.- Supporting local people transforming the lives of others.- Bringing local people together to create something special.- Caring about those people who care enough to act.- Championing local people doing extraordinary things together.

It’s time for me and you to take over the world.
