A few things we’d like you to know before you give
This short film produced in March 2011 tells the story of five service-users whose lives have been made so much better because of support from THE FED. They all voice one message – they don’t know how they would have coped without us.
You can donate by post to THE FED, Fundraising Department, HEATHLANDS VILLAGE, Heathlands Drive, Prestwich M25 9SB, by phone on 0161 772 4800 or by any of the methods shown below:
