So, the new year has brought our first birthday, which for us is the 151st of the Together Trust which began as the Manchester and Salford Boys' and Girls's Refuge.
The celebrations for its 150th were a little muted given the restrictions around the virus, but the year closed with the AGM and a Christmas service acknowledging the charities history and continued work with young people and families.
For those wanting help in tracking family members who may have passed through the care of the charity the Trust will respond to requests for help.
In the meantime there is the book, published last year which celebrates the history of the Together Trust from its beginnings in 1870, through to today.
