Welcome to our Summer News Bulletin.
• Are you aware of what the "Manchester Minimum Safeguarding Standards" are?
• Are you up to date with your safeguarding?
• Do you work with children and / or vulnerable adults?

The Voluntary Sector Safeguarding Toolkit has been developed in partnership with Macc, MSCB and Manchester City Council in response to the safeguarding minimum standards.
WHAT IS THE MCC APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAMME?
• Over the next year, MCC are offering a range of Apprenticeship posts to support out of work and disadvantaged Manchester residents and young people into employment
WHAT WILL APPRENTICES BE OFFERED?
• Pay scale: You will be recruited to a permanent role as an ‘Apprentice’ into a Grade 1 position at scale point 6 - £12,489. An incremental pay scale framework would then allow the individual to progress through to the normal scale for the role to which they have been aligned.
From April 2013 the Government is introducing big changes to the way benefits are paid. In particular, the new size criteria for social housing and Universal Credit will have big impact on how tenants receive their Housing Benefit.
Southway Housing Trust Project are holding an advice and information afternoon to provide tenants, professionals, volunteers and anyone else interested in the changes with more detail on how the changes could affect them.
Booking is essential.
Refreshments will be provided.
