Our partners
 Manchester City CouncilMCC is the local government authority responsible for providing public services and governance in Manchester. We Love MCR Charity have a close relationship with MCC extending back to the very beginning, due to our origins as the Lord Mayor of Manchester's Charity. We receive support from MCC including, but not limited to, office space, book-keeping and HR. MCC employees often get involved in fundraising efforts for WLMC, and we have shared objectives like UNICEF 'Child Friendly City' status. |  Hewlett Packard EnterpriseGlobal technology company HPE established their presence in Manchester in 2019, moving to Circle Square in 2020. From the off, they made the decision to partner with WLMC, grounding themselves in their new home, giving their employees every opportunity to bed in and to feel connected to Manchester. Since then, HPE staff have committed themselves time and time again to multiple fundraising efforts to support the work we do across our city. |
