The Open Doors Project is a pilot scheme established by the Office for Social Responsibility in collaboration with Manchester Museum and Alliance Manchester Business School. The scheme allows community members to book meeting rooms totally free-of-charge on the Oxford Road campus. These room bookings are open to voluntary and charity organisations, CICs and social enterprises, community groups, and residents’ associations.
Small Charity Week is a campaign to empower the UK’s small charities to have an even greater impact on society, and to address the challenges they face.
