Croma Donates £2000 to local Charity ‘Manchester Mind’

Our 2017 local char­i­ty part­ner­ship with Man­ches­ter Mind  has raised a fan­tas­tic £2022.50 from the sale of our  ‘Spe­cials’ piz­za and  a Char­i­ty walk dur­ing the year.

For every ‘Spe­cial’ piz­za our fab­u­lous cus­tomers have bought, we’ve donat­ed 50p on your behalf. We also raised over £500 from the Cro­ma Chorl­ton Char­i­ty walk in May. It’s been anoth­er fan­tas­tic Char­i­ty  link up where Cro­ma is com­mit­ted to help­ing local char­i­ta­ble caus­es. Pre­vi­ous Char­i­ty part­ner­ships have includ­ed Pre­vent Breast Can­cer (Gen­e­sis), For­ev­er Man­ches­ter and North West Air Ambu­lance .

Man­ches­ter Mind is our New Char­i­ty Part­ner­ship for 2017

We’re delight­ed to announce Cro­ma’s new Char­i­ty part­ner­ship for 2017 with ‘Man­ches­ter Mind’. Cro­ma will be donat­ing 50p to Man­ches­ter Mind dur­ing 2017 from every ‘Spe­cial’ Piz­za or main dish sold . We’ll make the dona­tion on your behalf (so it’s already includ­ed in the price of the ‘Spe­cial’ ).

Man­ches­ter Mind is an inde­pen­dent local char­i­ty which deliv­ers free sup­port to around 4000 young peo­ple (15–25 years old) and adults every year.
Their vision is that of a city which pro­motes good men­tal health and treats peo­ple with men­tal health issues pos­i­tive­ly, fair­ly and with respect.

Man­ches­ter Mind is com­mit­ted to improv­ing the lives of local peo­ple and chal­leng­ing the stereo­types and dis­crim­i­na­tion that sur­rounds men­tal health.Michael Bak­er

The char­i­ty empow­ers peo­ple live more suc­cess­ful­ly in their com­mu­ni­ties and with no core fund­ing from (nation­al) Mind or the Gov­ern­ment, they rely on grants and local dona­tions to con­tin­ue their vital work, sup­port­ing some of the city’s most vul­ner­a­ble residents.

Look out for the ‘Spe­cials’ card on the tables when you vis­it our Restau­rants in Man­ches­ter, Chorl­ton, Dids­bury and Prest­wich. The ‘Spe­cial’ Piz­za or main dish will be high­light­ed with the Man­ches­ter Mind Logo — so we’ll donate 50p on your behalf every time you buy main course ‘Spe­cial’ . Our Spe­cials change fre­quent­ly so be sure to call back regularly!

We’ll also be sup­port­ing Man­ches­ter Mind with events and pro­mo­tions dur­ing Men­tal Health Aware­ness Week (mid May) and World Men­tal Health Day (10 Oct) — thanks for your sup­port of this fan­tas­tic local men­tal health charity.
