Issue details

Greater Manchester has one of the best nightlife scenes in the UK, and the Deputy Mayor is determined to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to enjoy it in a safe way.
This service will be focussed on providing support to vulnerable individuals in and around the Gay Village area of Manchester on a Friday and Saturday evening and will work in partnership with licensed premises and emergency services to provide a non-emergency support to those that are most vulnerable, and therefore at greatest risk of becoming the victim of a crime.
This service has previously been funded via grant agreement on a year by year rolling basis.
This decision moves the commissioning of the service to a formal
arrangement that provides greater scope for the GMCA and the Deputy Mayor to ensure the service is meeting the welfare need presented in Manchester’s Gay Village.
