Welcome to Penderels Trust Salford & Greater Manchester

Covid-19 Pandemic Information

'Spirit of Salford' is the combined efforts of organisations (including Salford City Council and NHS Salford) in Salford to help everyone in the city stay safe and help reduce the spread of Coronavirus COVID-19. Their information can be found in the flyers that can be downloaded from the bottom the page.

A new letter (updated August 2020) to direct payment recipients in Salford from adult social care services/NHS provides lots of useful information about support available during the Coronavirus pandemic.  If you receive a direct payment, you may have already received this letter but you can download a copy at the bottom of this page.

There is also some information on the safe use of medicines.

Please find below some general information on the services we offer.
