Be part of the historic response to COVID-19...
Macc and Volunteer Centre Manchester are supporting Manchester Health and Care Commissioning (MHCC) with its recruitment to support Manchester's COVID-19 vaccination programme at community-based sites across the city.
How to get involved

To express your interest in supporting at the vaccine sites, please visit the volunteer recruitment microsite at:
