A charity project which provides intensive support for families with complex needs has received the Salford City Mayor’s Charter mark.
The Salford Family Intervention Project, managed by Northern communities charity, DISC was able to provide evidence to show it put Salford first, it bought goods and services in Salford and it set a standard for employment.
Senior manager at DISC, Helen Bowyer, said: “We are so proud to accept this prestigious award. The Mayor’s Charter sets the standard for local organisations.
“It tells the whole city that DISC Salford is working positively to improve employment opportunities for communities in Salford. It shows we support local business wherever possible and have high standards as an employer.”
City Mayor Ian Stewart congratulated Disc on achieving the full charter mark.
He said: “This is a good example of a national organisation impacting in a local area for the benefit of families and residents. Their down to earth and effective approach ensures support for whole families in our Salford communities.”
