Learn better practice in engaging with people living in poverty.

What you'll learn:

• Insights into our (Resolve Poverty) work engaging with people with lived experience of poverty in order to develop responses to poverty
• Practical support on how to set up and facilitate lived experience spaces and how to use these spaces to enhance your work
• Best practice around ensuring safety of attendees, recognising multiple disadvantage, and listening to and valuing people we work with

As the government's 10 year health plan commits to delivering neighbourhood health centres in 43 localities by the end of this parliament, the question remains: how can we achieve this without significant capital investment.

Join us for an evening of networking and connection, looking ahead to 2026 and beyond.

Tied to our Annual General Meeting (AGM), this event will offer the chance to have a chat with sector colleagues and discover what's coming up at Macc, including our rebrand!

The full agenda is to be confirmed soon.

Refreshments will be provided for all guests.

For those who are unable to attend in person, this event will be hybrid to allow Macc members to join online.

This training provides you with the insights, tools, and confidence to evaluate and strengthen your organisation’s culture providing a strong foundation for success.

As part of Adult Safeguarding Week, MacIntyre will introduce their Everyone Everywhere initiative in this free online seminar.

Everyone Everywhere is about recognising yourself as a contributor to your local neighbourhood. When you help others and get involved in local activities, you feel part of something wider, and you feel valued.

Join the red-carpet premiere of The Success of Moss Side (an SNE Studios Production, directed by Elmi Ali and produced by Baka Bah) – a brand-new documentary framed through the lens of a young filmmaker.

Moss Side, an inner-city Manchester neighbourhood, is often reduced to external perceptions of crime, violence and poverty. While these challenges exist, such narratives overshadow the vibrant, multifaceted reality cherished by its residents.
