Diners in Manchester will be asked to pay an extra £1 on their restaurant bill

So far, the campaign has secured the support of 13 restaurants across Greater Manchester

In the lead up to Christmas, diners across Greater Manchester are being invited to add £1 onto the food bills to help raise money for an important cause.

Glenn Pougnet, Director of StreetSmart said: "Many of us want to help the vulnerable people in our community during the festive period, and StreetSmart provides an easy way to do this. The figures from last year show how even £1 added to a bill can make a huge difference. The funds raised by StreetSmart in Greater Manchester this year will support the work of organisations such as CentrePoint, which funds Independent Living Advisors for young people, and Akt, a charity supporting LGBTQ+ young people aged 16-25 into safe homes, employment, education, or training.

David Fox from Tampopo, one of the restaurants taking part in StreetSmart 2024, commented: "We’re incredibly proud of our Manchester home, and the people and communities that make it, so supporting the most vulnerable people on our streets is a no-brainer.
