MTSG will be completing the challenge in aid of our charity partner, We Love MCR. We Love MCR is a fantastic charity helping our local community in Manchester. One of the charity initiatives supported by MTSG is the Manchester's Rising Stars Fund. The fund aims to give young Mancunians a helping hand to take opportunities that might otherwise be out of their reach. Limited funds can be a barrier to many young people, and the charity recognises that a little financial support at the right time can make a big difference. MTSG have hired young and aspiring photographers at recent events through the Rising Stars Fund, which not only helps provide work experience, but also assists in building a professional portfolio.
