Contact is a charity providing accommodation and practical support for homeless teenage girls from the Manchester area. We have helped nearly 1000 young women get back on their feet, and help them move onto better, happier futures.

They may have experienced relationship breakdowns, domestic violence, forced marriage, threatened abduction as well as physical and emotional abuse.

We have seven bedrooms in our main house and two in our move-on accommodation, offering a welcoming and homely atmosphere in the heart of South Manchester. We also help young women with the next stage, whether they want to return to education, start a job or explore training opportunities.
