Get involved
Whether you have an afternoon or a whole weekend, a paintbrush or a van, a skill or a business, there's a way you can help.
No experience required. We need painters, lifters, organisers, sewing hands, bakers, drivers, sourcers, designers and more.
In their own words
The people behind every project. Why they showed up, what they've found, and what it's meant to them.

Project 33 has lit a fire in me. It's become so much more than helping decorate houses.

When I first saw Grace's post about Project 33, I just knew I wanted to be involved.

I struggled a lot bringing up 2 children alone and never getting it to feel like a proper home. To be able to help someone else is such an honour.

I have always helped out with different charity fundraisers but this was different, hands on, everyone mucking in together.

Doing up houses and helping people is something I've always done. What's different here is the real sense of belonging.

Every night, I go to bed with thoughts of Project 33, marveling at its rapid growth and the vision Gracie Marie has spearheaded.

I saw the first project on a friend's page and nearly jumped out of my chair. This is what I have always wanted to do.

I had followed Project 33 from afar. It was something different, something quite unique to Manchester.

I've always believed that even the smallest act of kindness can change someone's world.

Project 33 came into my life at a time when I was struggling mentally following the loss of my dad and after being in a toxic relationship.
