The Greater Manchester VCSE Mental Health Forum is in the process of evolving the way that the VCSE sector works with the Greater Manchester Health and Social Care Partnership and the wider system around mental health.
The Forum has listened to concerns about the existing representative structure and have developed ,what they believe, is a more proactive way of working and are therefore seeking fifteen active leaders to form a new VCSE Mental Health Leadership group which will comprise of one active leader from each locality plus a further five additional leaders representing communities of identity and work being done on a greater Manchester level. It is expected that the roles will result in extra work in terms of attending meeting and bringing together colleagues and, in acknowledgement of that, each leader's organisation will receive £1,500 per year as a contribution toward the time used.
The Forum are looking to hear from those who are already operating as a leader in relation to supporting people's mental health within their localities or across Greater Manchester and are particularly interested in hearing from those who feel they are yet to feel that their voices and passion are yet to be fully utilised.
