About us
Who we are
For us, it’s personal – We treat everyone who needs our help as an individual with unique circumstances that need to be understood if we’re to truly help them solve their challenges.
At Gaddum, we treat everyone as individuals. We really get to know those we help, understanding their world to offer a range of support that’s right for them. Our promise of tailored support is made possible by our breadth and depth of knowledge, through our unwavering commitment to the local people of Greater Manchester.
Our experience listening to generation after generation, for nearly 200 years, has taught us the importance of considering not just the individual but also the relationships around them. Our innovative approach means we are able to not only build resilience, but identify further risks and offer preventive support now and in the future. At Gaddum, we believe that by supporting individuals, we ultimately help support entire communities.
Our aim is to empower and enhance the lives of people in Greater Manchester.
We currently work in four Greater Manchester authorities, Manchester, Rochdale, Salford and Stockport.
