Description

Greater Manchester Fire & Rescue Service Crest


Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service would like to invite you to attend our Voluntary Sector Seminar on Wednesday 10th May 2017, at our dedicated Training Centre in central Manchester.

GMFRS has over 350 volunteers currently assisting us in various activities across Greater Manchester and we’d like to show you the great range of volunteering opportunities we have available.

This seminar is your chance to find out about the types of schemes we offer, our recruitment and training process and to meet some of our existing volunteers. It’s an opportunity to get Hands-on with some of our activities and to experience what we do with the people doing it.

It will also be a great time for us to learn from you - finding out how we can work with your organisation, inviting your feedback on our processes and getting to know you – all with the primary purpose of creating stronger partnerships and promoting volunteering activity across Greater Manchester.

The seminar will run from 10am-3.30pm and will include time for networking.

Want to find out more about how you and your service users can get involved?

Then book your place now! One ticket per registered attendee – please pass on to colleagues who you think would be interested. (Be quick - we have limited places available.)

Uzma Babb, Volunteer Development Officer, Greater Manchester Fire & Rescue Service.


FAQs

I have colleagues who want to attend, but I can only purchase one ticket at a time. How do they attend?

To ensure that all attendees are informed of the correct information in advance of the event, we require everyone to order their ticket individually. Please do pass on the Eventbrite link to your colleagues and ask them to register.

Will lunch be provided?

You are very welcome to bring your own lunch, or alternatively hot food, sandwiches and salads can be purchased from our on-site canteen. (A hot meal costs around £2.70. When you register, you will be asked to indicate your preferred lunch option, as we need to provide the catering team with expected numbers.)

What are my transport/parking options for getting to and from the event?

Parking is available at GMFRS Training and Development Centre and on the top floor of Wing Yip Chinese Supermarket, just next door. Further parking is available in the many nearby pay and display car parks.

The nearest Metrolink stop is Shudehill (Postcode M4 2AE).

The nearest Bus Stop is on Oldham Road.
