Morrissey donates £50,000 to help save Salford Lads Club – the location of the iconic The Smiths photo. He joins Graham Nash and Courteeners.

Today, the centre continues to provide a safe space for young people from some of Greater Manchester’s deprived communities, offering activities such as sports six days a week. “His support is more than a financial contribution; it’s a powerful endorsement of our mission and a tribute to the club’s enduring role in the lives of young people and the cultural heart of Salford,” she said. Alongside The Smiths’ album cover, Salford Lads Club has also been featured in TV series and films such as Peaky Blinders, Last Tango In Halifax, Mrs Biggs, Cold Feet, Blue Murder, and more.
