Story

Wai Yin Society was founded over thirty years ago to help socially excluded and disadvantaged people, their families and communities to live better lives. Wai Yin supports communities across Greater Manchester, as well as new arrivals to the UK, by providing advice, education, health and family support from before birth to old age in order to support people to improve their circumstances. We want people to thrive, live the lives that they choose for themselves and enjoy good health and wellbeing. By supporting Wai Yin Society, you are helping families and communities to become more confident, stronger and healthier.

Comments from our users

"Wai Yin have supported me through a really difficult time for my family by helping me with the right advice and accessing the housing, benefits and education services that I needed. They were able to provide a support worker who could talk to me in my first language."

"We are first time parents, and Wai Yin has helped us by providing health education and support in our own language. They are continuing to support us with ongoing help and advice as our child grows. We know about childrens centres and the support that we can get as parents."

"As someone who has recently come to Manchester, Wai Yin has helped me to learn about living in the UK and to improve my English language skills so that I can talk to my neighbours and look for a job."
