READERS of the Manchester Evening News are being asked for their help as part of a last push to save Salford Lads and Girls Club from closure.
Final push to help lads club stay open

The historic youth centre first opened in 1903 with the mission to 'Brighten Young Lives and Make Good Citizens'.

But, due to rising costs and a reduction in grant income, the club will run out of money in a matter of weeks.

The facility needs to raise £250,000 before the end of November in order to avoid shutting. The M.E.N last month launched a crowdfunding campaign on behalf of the club in order to raise the money.
