Originally established in 1979 within the framework of the Salford Diocesan Trust, the Centre has been formally established as a separate charity in order to preserve the distinctiveness and integrity of its work and to lay the foundations upon which the long-term growth and capacity of the organisation will be built.
Members of the Management Committee have been appointed as the Foundation Trustees form the new charity in which capacity they will continue to oversee the work of the Centre, to ensure it stays true to its mission of engaging, supporting and empowering those experiencing social and economic exclusion.
