Please get in touch via 0161-4776344 or email jonathan@thewellspring. co.uk to request a swear box.

Basic literacy is such an important issues for many people who use The Wellspring.

It is a need that must be addressed in order for people to become independent.

Without basic reading and writing skills how are people expected to run a home and budget properly?

People become homeless for hundreds of different reasons and not being able to read or write is one of them.

The Wellspring is having some essential repairs carried out to our building over the next week which means that the main room at the project will be closed.

Wellspring project workers and health care staff will still be on hand to address any issues around homelessness or health.

We hope to be back fully operational in the next week.

All proceeds will be shared between The Wellspring and Commitment for life.
