Greater Manchester Mental Health Trust are holding a conference on the 3rd October at the Methodist Central Buildings (09:00-16:30). The conference aims to share best practice and knowledge from across the UK on how best to engage and support homeless individuals and frontline homeless services. With speakers including clinical psychologists, commissioners, researchers and peer support workers we hope to provide a thought provoking day to support and better equip the city of Manchester to solve some of the major problems which lead to, and maintain homelessness. The conference is aimed at all those engaged or wishing to engage; or working with homeless individuals in Greater Manchester (and beyond). The conference hopes to have in attendance NHS/council/voluntary/faith sector services; individuals with lived experience; commissioners; researchers, students and anyone else with an interest in solving the problems of rough sleeping and homelessness.
