The homeless in Wythenshawe and Manchester  need help, 

So Help raise funds for Wythenshawe Safety Patrol , they use the funds to help  the true homeless people of Wythenshawe and not the gangs that operate and exploit our good nature,

They supply Tents, food, clothing and help to get vulnerable people back into accommodation with Manchester City Council

So when you donate to them you know the funds are used to help the true homeless people.
