Supporting Cyril Flint as Charity of the Year

Jan 30, 2025 | Our community

Each year, Harold Sharp selects a charity to support, organising quarterly fundraising events to help raise money for the cause. Over the last couple of years we have supported both FareShare and The Christie.

This year, we are proud to support Cyril Flint as our Charity of the Year 2025/26.

Cyril Flint is a befriending service based in Sale, dedicated to reducing social isolation among elderly people. The charity’s mission is to provide companionship to those who may otherwise be isolated, through a network of volunteers who spend an hour a week with an elderly person, offering essential social interaction and emotional support.

Each year, Cyril Flint connects volunteers with hundreds of elderly individuals across Manchester, fostering valuable relationships that promote well-being and help combat loneliness.

The charity’s reach extends beyond just providing companionship; Cyril Flint also runs a range of fundraising events to ensure they can continue offering this service. They rely on the generosity of volunteers, donors, and supporters to sustain their efforts – we are proud to support such a meaningful cause!

Our fundraising target for 2025 is £1,000, which will go towards supporting Cyril Flint’s important work in the community.
