Who we are
As the charitable arm of Torus, the North West’s largest affordable homes provider, we partner with communities to build better futures together.
We invest the group’s commercial profits into projects that bring people together and change lives.

Our vision is one of growing and stronger communities. Places where people have access to the best life chances and opportunities to learn and earn.
We are committed to:
Providing health and wellbeing activities
Supporting people into jobs and training opportunities
Assisting you with money and benefits
Helping you to get online
Health & Wellbeing
We are working to improve health outcomes, so people of all ages can reach their full potential.

Employment
We are supporting people to find jobs and build work-ready skills, with a target of 3,000 fresh opportunities by 2020.
