Get To Know Where To Go Summer Holidays communications toolkit

11 Jul 2024 - 11:35 by michelle.foster

The school holidays will soon be here. With (hopefully) warmer weather, the summer holidays can be a great opportunity to take a break and spend some time with the family. But don’t let an unexpected illness or injury spoil the summer fun. This toolkit includes information on how to keep kids safe and well this summer – as well as signposting for food banks and support if you’re feeling isolated, because we know summer can be tough.

NHS Greater Manchester want to make sure people are well prepared and know where to go to get the care they need as quickly as possible.

Right to Remain Solidarity Session

18 July, 2024 - 13:00 to 16:00

We have a new government. A new political landscape is emerging. What does this mean for Greater Manchester, for migrant rights, for our communities, our groups, our organisations?

We have been through years of an increasingly hostile environment, culminating in the Illegal Migration Act and the Rwanda plan. Many of us are still reeling from our emergency response to the pre-election Rwanda detentions. That scheme appears to have been ditched, which is a massive relief. But what next, for the movement for migration justice? What next, in Greater Manchester?
