Story

For over a decade, we’ve been helping people move into their dream homes, and we’ve loved every minute of it. But now, as we launch our exciting new brand, we’re taking things a step further. Our mission is not only about selling homes for people—it’s about helping those who don’t have a safe space to call home.

As co-founders of Block & Brick, we’ve been lucky enough to work alongside incredible people, building relationships and helping them through one of the most important milestones of their lives—buying or selling their home. But while we’ve been fortunate, we know there are many others who aren’t as lucky.

That’s why we’re lacing up our trainers and running the Manchester Marathon to raise funds for The Salvation Army. This incredible charity provides shelter, food, and vital support to people experiencing homelessness, poverty, and hardship. Their work transforms lives, and we want to be part of that change.

We’ve spent over 10 years helping people move into new homes, and now we want to help those who are still searching for warmth, safety, and stability. Every donation, no matter how big or small, will go directly to The Salvation Army via our JustGiving page to provide essential services for those in need.

There’s no set target—just a desire to make a difference. Every contribution helps, and together, we can bring hope to those who need it most.

Thank you for supporting us and The Salvation Army in this important mission.
