Become a member of the Greater Manchester Older People’s Network
Join us as an individual – The work of GM Older People's Network is all about getting older people’s voices heard to find out more about the GM Older People’s Network visit our website: www.gmopn.org.uk. We want to make sure that people have a say in the decision-making that affects them and that their voices are championed in as many relevant areas as possible. In order to do this, we offer and advertise a wide range of participation opportunities for older people to get involved with.
Join us as an organisational representative – Although the network is committed to being led by older people we recognise that representatives of organisations working with older people are important advocates for older people and can be the voice for people who would otherwise not have an opportunity to share their views.

Community Explorers mailing list
Community Explorers meetings are a platform for VCSE groups and public sector colleagues across Manchester to communicate and connect with each other. It is a space to discuss work and collaboration opportunities, voice concerns, and publicise offers and events. It is an opportunity to have your voice heard in your community and learn from others about what is happening in your area. Each group also has its own mailing list, which members can use to share and receive information and updates with the wider network in their area. Macc facilitates the Community Explorers meetings in partnership with the MICP. It is an informal and valued opportunity to collaborate with others whilst sharing information about services and activities and directly influencing some of the key strategies across the city.
